abstract = "Suzhou numerals, a specialized numerical no-tation system historically used in Chinese com-merce and accounting, played a pivotal role in financial transactions from the Song Dynasty to the early 20th century. Despite their his-torical significance, they remain largely absent from modern OCR benchmarks, limiting com-putational access to archival trade documents. This paper presents a curated dataset of 773 expert-annotated Suzhou numeral samples ex-tracted from late Qing-era trade ledgers. We provide a statistical analysis of character distri-butions, offering insights into their real-world usage in historical bookkeeping. Additionally, we evaluate baseline performance with hand-written text recognition (HTR) model, high-lighting the challenges of recognizing low-resource brush-written numerals. By introduc-ing this dataset and initial benchmark results, we aim to facilitate research in historical doc-umentation in ancient Chinese characters, ad-vancing the digitization of early Chinese finan-cial records. The dataset is publicly available at our huggingface hub, and our codebase can be accessed at our github repository."
