Medical Article Record Groundtruth (MARG)

Go to the MARG Web site: http://marg.nlm.nih.gov/index2.asp

MARG is a freely-available repository of document page images and their associated textual and layout data. The data has been reviewed and corrected to establish its "ground truth". Research in document image analysis and understanding is greatly facilitated by such respositories for the design, training, and testing of algorithms for data identification and extraction.

Rover: a visualization and analysis tool

To use the ground truth data available in XML format along with the corresponding TIFF image, this tool is provided to allow researchers to:

• Load a TIFF image and the corresponding XML file into an application, and display the XML data, where appropriate, overlaid on the image.
• Modify and add new ground truth data.
• Compare the results of new algorithms against the ground truth data.
