Dataset Description

This dataset contains Punjabi OCR data with page images and their corresponding text annotations, ready for machine learning applications.

Dataset Summary

• Language: Punjabi (pa-IN)
• Script: Gurmukhi
• Total Pages: 769
• Source: Generated using Punjabi OCR annotation pipeline
• Format: Image-annotation pairs with original JSON annotations

Dataset Splits

• Train: 615 samples
• Validation: 76 samples
• Test: 78 samples

The dataset is split into train/validation/test sets with an 80/10/10 ratio by default:

• Training set for model training
• Validation set for hyperparameter tuning and model selection
• Test set for final evaluation

Dataset Structure

Each row contains:

• image: The page image (PNG format, high resolution)
• annotation: Complete OCR annotation in JSON format (as string)

The annotation JSON contains the original structure with:

• Document metadata (language, script, image dimensions)
• Text hierarchy (regions, lines, words)
• Bounding box coordinates for all text elements
• Complete text transcription

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset
import json

# Load the dataset
dataset = load_dataset("rupindersingh1313/30_8_2025_dataset")

# Access different splits
train_data = dataset["train"]
val_data = dataset["validation"] 
test_data = dataset["test"]

# Iterate through training data
for sample in train_data:
    image = sample["image"]
    annotation = json.loads(sample["annotation"])  # Parse JSON annotation
    print(f"Image shape: {image.size}")
    print(f"Annotation keys: {list(annotation.keys())}")

Annotation Format

The annotation field contains JSON with this structure:
