## Dataset Summary 

The NorHand v3 dataset comprises Norwegian letter and diary line images and text from 19th and early 20th century.

Note that all images are resized to a fixed height of 128 pixels.

### Languages

All the documents in the dataset are written in Norwegian Bokmål.

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

```
{
  'image': <PIL.JpegImagePlugin.JpegImageFile image mode=RGB size=4300x128 at 0x1A800E8E190,
  'text': 'Til Bestyrelsen af'
}
```

### Data Fields


- `image`: a PIL.Image.Image object containing the image. Note that when accessing the image column (using dataset[0]["image"]), the image file is automatically decoded. Decoding of a large number of image files might take a significant amount of time. Thus it is important to first query the sample index before the "image" column, i.e. dataset[0]["image"] should always be preferred over dataset["image"][0].
- `text`: the label transcription of the image.
