# Khmer Printed Words

5,000 synthetic images of short, isolated Khmer words in 10 fonts, with their text. Most training lines are mid-to-long, so this set tests short input.

It is the "Printed Words" test set in the [Netra OCR](https://github.com/netra-ai-lab/Netra-OCR) results, which use its first 500 lines.

| Column | |
| --- | --- |
| `image` | the word image |
| `label` | its text |
| `file_name` | the original file name |

## Use

```python
from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("Netra-Lab/khmer-printed-words", split="train")
```

With the Netra OCR repository, the `printed-words` preset scores any model on it:

```bash
bash training/evaluate.sh published --test printed-words
bash training/evaluate.sh published --test Netra-Lab/khmer-printed-words:train[:500]   # as in the results
```
