+ # Synthdog Multilingual
112
+
113
+ <!-- Provide a quick summary of the dataset. -->
114
+
115
+ The Synthdog dataset created for training in [Centurio: On Drivers of Multilingual Ability of Large Vision-Language Model](https://gregor-ge.github.io/Centurio/).
116
+
117
+ Using the [official Synthdog code](https://github.com/clovaai/donut/tree/master/synthdog), we created >1 million training samples for improving OCR capabilities in Large Vision-Language Models.
118
+
119
+ ## Dataset Details
120
+
121
+ We provide the images for download in two `.tar.gz` files. Download and extract them in folders of the same name (so `tar xvzf images.tar.gz -C images; tar xvzf images.tar.gz -C images_non_latin`).
122
+ The image path in the dataset expects images to be in those respective folders for unique identification.
123
+
124
+
125
+ Every language has the following amount of samples: 500,000 for English, 7,500 for non-Latin scripts, and 5,000 otherwise.
126
+
127
+ Text is taken from Wikipedia of the respective languages. Font is `GoNotoKurrent-Regular`.
128
+
129
+
130
+ > Note: Right-to-left written scripts (Arabic, Hebrew, ...) are unfortunatly writte correctly right-to-left but also bottom-to-top. We were not able to fix this issue. However, empirical results in Centurio suggest that this data is still helpful for improving model performance.
