No single layout model works everywhere: LightOnOCR-3 team on combining complementary sources
IgorCarron · x · 2026-10-09
Sharing more LightOnOCR-3 training lessons, the LightOn team found no single layout model worked reliably across all document types: models strong on research papers struggled with handwriting, others missed regions or split paragraphs incorrectly. They therefore combined complementary sources for training data, echoing the LightOnOCR 2 reference-text approach.
