# Dataset for TFLOP

This repository contains the dataset used in the paper [**"TFLOP: Table Structure Recognition Framework with Layout Pointer Mechanism"**](https://www.ijcai.org/proceedings/2024/105), which is built upon the [PubTabNet dataset](https://github.com/ibm-aur-nlp/PubTabNet).

## 📂 Dataset Overview

This dataset includes:
1. **Filtered Images**: A subset of images from the original PubTabNet dataset, with erroneous samples removed.
2. **OCR Inference Results**: OCR (Optical Character Recognition) outputs corresponding to the included images.

The dataset has been prepared and refined to ensure high quality for the experiments in the paper.

## 🚀 How to Use

You can access detailed usage instructions in the [TFLOP GitHub repository](https://github.com/UpstageAI/TFLOP).  

Simply clone the repository and follow the steps provided in the README there:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/UpstageAI/TFLOP
```
