Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Add a BLSTM decoder after standard collapse (ablation) | MDLSTM-RNN on IAM · IAM validation, line-level training | CER%: 8.4 -> 7.5 | Helped |
| Add a BLSTM decoder after standard collapse (ablation) | MDLSTM-RNN on Rimes · Rimes validation, line-level training | CER%: 4.9 -> 4.8 | Helped |
| Replace standard collapse with attention-based weighted collapse (ablation) | MDLSTM-RNN with BLSTM decoder on IAM · IAM validation | CER%: 7.5 -> 6.8 | Helped |
| Replace standard collapse with attention-based weighted collapse (ablation) | MDLSTM-RNN with BLSTM decoder on Rimes · Rimes validation | CER%: 4.8 -> 2.5 | Helped |
| Use an attention-based collapse rather than ground-truth line segmentation | MDLSTM-RNN on IAM · IAM validation, 150 dpi | CER%: 8.4 -> 6.8 | Helped |
| Use an attention-based collapse rather than ground-truth line segmentation | MDLSTM-RNN on Rimes · Rimes validation, 300 dpi | CER%: 3.6 -> 2.5 | Helped |
| Add a language model | Weighted collapse on IAM, 150 dpi · IAM test | CER%: 10.1 -> 6.5 | Helped |
| Increase input resolution from 150 dpi to 300 dpi | Weighted collapse on IAM with language model · IAM test | WER%: 16.6 -> 16.4 | No clear effect |
