Product Image OCR Dataset with Malayalam Text

What's Included

Introducing the Malayalam Product Image Dataset - a diverse and comprehensive collection of images meticulously curated to propel the advancement of text recognition and optical character recognition (OCR) models designed specifically for the Malayalam language.

Dataset Contain & Diversity:

Containing a total of 2000 images, this Malayalam OCR dataset offers diverse distribution across different types of front images of Products. In this dataset, you'll find a variety of text that includes product names, taglines, logos, company names, addresses, product content, etc. Images in this dataset showcase distinct fonts, writing formats, colors, designs, and layouts.

To ensure the diversity of the dataset and to build a robust text recognition model we allow limited (less than five) unique images from a single resource. Stringent measures have been taken to exclude any personally identifiable information (PII) and to ensure that in each image a minimum of 80% of space contains visible Malayalam text.

Images have been captured under varying lighting conditions – both day and night – along with different capture angles and backgrounds, to build a balanced OCR dataset. The collection features images in portrait and landscape modes.

All these images were captured by native Malayalam people to ensure the text quality, avoid toxic content and PII text. We used the latest iOS and Android mobile devices above 5MP cameras to click all these images to maintain the image quality. In this training dataset images are available in both JPEG and HEIC formats.

Metadata:

Along with the image data, you will also receive detailed structured metadata in CSV format. For each image, it includes metadata like image orientation, county, language, and device information. Each image is properly renamed corresponding to the metadata.

The metadata serves as a valuable tool for understanding and characterizing the data, facilitating informed decision-making in the development of Malayalam text recognition models.

Update & Custom Collection:

We're committed to expanding this dataset by continuously adding more images with the assistance of our native Malayalam crowd community.

If you require a custom product image OCR dataset tailored to your guidelines or specific device distribution, feel free to contact us. We're equipped to curate specialized data to meet your unique needs.

Furthermore, we can annotate or label the images with bounding box or transcribe the text in the image to align with your specific project requirements using our crowd community.
