多专家路由实现多领域低资源满文OCR

Multi-Expert Routing for Multi-Domain Low-Resource OCR: A Manchu Case Study

精选理由

满文OCR因为书写风格多变很难做,这篇论文用了个巧妙的办法:训练几个专家模型再加个路由分类器,哪个风格用哪个专家,精确到0.3%的错误率。挺实用的思路。

AI 摘要

针对满文历史文档多种书写风格(楷书、行书、宫廷奏折半草书)的低资源OCR问题,本研究提出多专家路由系统。该系统复用迭代微调过程中的检查点作为领域专家,并用轻量级页面级图像分类器按视觉风格分配页面。在三个冻结测试集上,路由系统匹配了所选专家,CER分别为0.30%(楷书)、1.57%(奏折)和4.83%(行书)。页面级领域准确率99.3%,与领域标签预言机精度一致。其中两位专家并非专门针对最终领域训练。

Multi-Expert Routing for Multi-Domain Low-Resource OCR: A Manchu Case Study

Historical Manchu OCR must accommodate various visually distinct writing styles, including regular script, running script, and the semi-cursive chancery hand used in palace memorials, despite limited labeled data. We study a multi-expert system that reuses checkpoints from an iterative fine-tuning process as domain specialists and uses a lightweight page-level image classifier to dispatch pages by visual style. When the checkpoint pool lacks a suitable specialist, we train an additional expert for that domain. On three frozen test sets, the routed system matches the selected specialist for each style at two-decimal precision: 0.30 percent CER on regular script, 1.57 percent on memorials, and 4.83 percent on running script. The router achieves 99.3 percent page-level domain accuracy and matches the domain-label oracle at the same precision. Two of the three selected specialists were not trained specifically for their final domain; only the running-script expert was trained with that domain as its target. We report the evaluation protocol, router design, and per-page predictions to make the comparison reproducible.
