Polish Language Document Layout Detection

The aim of the task is to advance the research concerning document layout detection in Polish. Document layout recognition involves identifying such elements as the title, section header, main text, table, footnote, image, list, etc. The input to the system consists of page images in graphic file format, while the output is the set of identified areas representing individual structural elements (rectangle coordinates) and the corresponding element category label.

A similar task for English-language documents was carried out during the ICDAR 2023 competition: https://ds4sd.github.io/icdar23-doclaynet/. The document annotation method was adopted from the DocLayNet dataset: https://github.com/DS4SD/DocLayNet
