Dataset Summary

PubLayNet is a large document layout analysis dataset built by automatically matching XML representations and PDF content from more than one million PubMed Central Open Access articles. It contains more than 360,000 document images with COCO-style annotations for common layout elements such as text, title, list, table, and figure regions.

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

The dataset supports document layout object detection and segmentation. No leaderboard is bundled with this Hugging Face packaging.

Languages

Document content is primarily English (en), but the task is visual document layout analysis.

Dataset Structure

Data Fields

Rows contain image_id, file_name, width, height, image, and COCO-style annotations.

Data Splits

Dataset Creation

PubLayNet was created from automatically parsed document layouts and released for large-scale document layout analysis.

Considerations for Using the Data

The dataset is document-centric and may not represent all document domains or non-English layout conventions.
