SleukRith Set is the first dataset specifically created for Khmer palm leaf
manuscripts. The dataset consists of annotated data from 657 pages of digitized
palm leaf manuscripts which are selected arbitrarily from a large collection of
existing and also recently digitized images. The dataset contains three types of
data: isolated characters, words, and lines. Each type of data is annotated with
the ground truth information which is very useful for evaluating and serving as
a training set for common document analysis tasks such as character/text
recognition, word/line segmentation, and word spotting.

The character mapping (per label) is not explained anywhere in the dataset homepage,
thus the labels are simply numbered from 0 to 110, each corresponds to a distinct character.

## Dataset Usage
### Using `datasets` library
```
from datasets import load_dataset
dset = datasets.load_dataset("SEACrowd/sleukrith_ocr", trust_remote_code=True)
```
### Using `seacrowd` library
```import seacrowd as sc
# Load the dataset using the default config
dset = sc.load_dataset("sleukrith_ocr", schema="seacrowd")
# Check all available subsets (config names) of the dataset
print(sc.available_config_names("sleukrith_ocr"))
# Load the dataset using a specific config
dset = sc.load_dataset_by_config_name(config_name="<config_name>")
```
