# Arabic Books |
|
|
|
## Dataset Summary |
|
|
|
The `arabic-books` dataset contains **8,500 rows of text**, each representing the full text of a single Arabic book. These texts were extracted using the [arabic-large-nougat](https://huggingface.co/MohamedRashad/arabic-large-nougat) model, showcasing the model’s capabilities in Arabic OCR and text extraction. The dataset spans a total of **1.1 billion tokens**, calculated using the GPT-4 tokenizer. |
|
|
|
This dataset is a **testimony to the quality** of the Arabic Nougat models and their effectiveness in extracting structured text from complex Arabic documents. |
|
|
|
## Research Context |
|
|
|
The dataset is part of the **Arabic Nougat** research project and supports the findings of the research paper: |
|
**[Arabic-Nougat: Fine-Tuning Vision Transformers for Arabic OCR and Markdown Extraction](https://huggingface.co/papers/2411.17835)**. |
|
|
|
## Purpose |
|
|
|
This dataset is intended to: |
|
- Demonstrate the performance of Arabic Nougat models. |
|
- Serve as a resource for developing **Arabic language models** and advancing research in **Arabic NLP**. |
|
|
|
## Licensing |
|
|
|
This dataset is released under the **GPL-3.0 License**, enabling its open-source availability for further research and development. |
