# Uchen vs Umê Classifier (DINOv3 ViT-S)
|
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
+
Binary Tibetan script classifier: **Uchen** (དབུ་ཅན།, headed/printed script) vs **Umê** (དབུ་མེད།, headless/cursive script). Fine-tuned from [DINOv3 ViT-S](https://huggingface.co/facebook/dinov3-vits16-pretrain-lvd1689m) on ~10,000 manuscript scans from the [Buddhist Digital Resource Center](https://www.bdrc.io) (BDRC).
|
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
+
**Dataset:** [openpecha/uchen-ume-classification-benchmark](https://huggingface.co/datasets/openpecha/uchen-ume-classification-benchmark)
|
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
+
## Recommended checkpoint
|
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
+
**Use `without_preprocess/final_model.pt`** for production. This model was trained and evaluated on full manuscript pages with no preprocessing — what you get is what you deploy.
|
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
+
## Results
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
+
Test set = 867 images, work-stratified split, no overlap with training works.
|
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
+
| Variant | Train/val preprocess | Test preprocess | Test acc | Test macro-F1 |
|
| 55 |
+
|---------|---------------------|-----------------|:--------:|:-------------:|
|
| 56 |
+
| **`without_preprocess/`** (recommended) | none | none (full page) | **80.7%** | **0.708** |
|
| 57 |
+
| `with_preprocess/` | center crop | none (full page) | 56.1% | 0.506 |
|
| 58 |
|
| 59 |
+
The `without_preprocess` variant is trained and tested on full pages — no mismatch between training and inference. The `with_preprocess` variant achieves ~99% validation F1 on center-cropped images (matching its training distribution), but drops to 56% when tested on full pages because the model has never seen uncropped input. This train–test mismatch makes it unsuitable for production where raw manuscript images are the input.

|

## Training data
|
| 62 |
|
| 63 |
+
| Class | Train | Validation | Test | Total |
|
| 64 |
+
|-------|------:|-----------:|-----:|------:|
|
| 65 |
+
| Uchen | ~3,124 | ~340 | ~290 | ~3,754 |
|
| 66 |
+
| Ume | ~5,986 | ~660 | ~561 | ~7,207 |
|
| 67 |
+
| **Total** | **9,110** | **1,000** | **851** | **10,961** |
|
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
+
**Uchen** includes: `uchen_sugthung`, `uchen_sugdring`, `uchen_sugring` (distinguished by descender length).
|
| 70 |
|
| 71 |
+
**Ume** includes: `petsuk`, `peri`, `tsegdrig`, `drudring`, `druring`, `druthung`, `drathung`, `khyuyig`, `tsumachug`, `yigchung`, `tsugchung`, `trinyig`, `dhumri`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| 72 |
|
| 73 |
+
**Excluded:** `difficult`, `multi_scripts`, `non_tibetan`.
|
| 74 |
|
| 75 |
+
Splits are partitioned at the **work level** — all pages from the same manuscript (`W` prefix in the filename) stay in one split only.
|
| 76 |
|
| 77 |
+
## Architecture
|
| 78 |
|
| 79 |
+
- **Backbone:** DINOv3 ViT-S/16 (21M params, self-supervised pretraining on 1.7B images)
|
| 80 |
+
- **Head:** LayerNorm → Dropout(0.1) → Linear(384, 128) → GELU → Dropout(0.1) → Linear(128, 2)
|
| 81 |
+
- **Training:** Head only (backbone frozen), 20 epochs, lr=1e-3, AdamW with cosine schedule
|
| 82 |
+
- **Balancing:** WeightedRandomSampler + class-weighted cross-entropy loss
|
| 83 |
+
- **Augmentations:** Random rotation ±5°, brightness/contrast jitter ±20%, random crop scale 0.7–1.0, random erasing. No horizontal flip.

|
| 145 |
+
train = ds["train"] # 9,110 images
|
| 146 |
+
val = ds["validation"] # 1,000 images
|
| 147 |
+
test = ds["test"] # 851 images
|
| 148 |
```
|
| 149 |
|
| 150 |
+
## Intended use
|
| 151 |
+
|
| 152 |
+
This model is **Level 1** of a hierarchical Tibetan script classification pipeline:
|
| 153 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| 154 |
```
|
| 155 |
+
Manuscript image
|
| 156 |
+
→ Level 1: Uchen vs Ume (this model)
|
| 157 |
+
├── Uchen → Level 2: sugthung / sugdring / sugring
|
| 158 |
+
└── Ume → Level 2: druma / danyig / pedri / tsugdri / gyuyig
|
| 159 |
+
```
|
| 160 |
+
|
| 161 |
+
## Limitations
|
| 162 |
+
|
| 163 |
+
- Trained on BDRC digitised manuscripts. May underperform on photographs, modern prints, or non-BDRC scans.
|
| 164 |
+
- The DINOv3 processor squashes the 5:1 pecha aspect ratio to 224×224. The `without_preprocess` model is trained to handle this, but extreme aspect ratios may still degrade performance.
|
| 165 |
+
- Edge cases (partial head strokes, transitional styles, heavy damage) may produce low-confidence predictions.
|
| 166 |
+
- **Access requirement:** DINOv3 is gated. Request access at [facebook/dinov3-vits16-pretrain-lvd1689m](https://huggingface.co/facebook/dinov3-vits16-pretrain-lvd1689m) and run `huggingface-cli login` before use.
