A kraken 7 baseline-segmentation model fine-tuned on Cairo Genizah manuscript pages — the first Genizah-specific segmenter we know of that is publicly available. Recognition models for these hands exist (the MiDRASH project published its recognizers on Zenodo), but line segmentation is where a generic model loses most of the text on Genizah fragments: tight columns, damaged edges, script far larger than the segmenter was trained on, marginal glosses and rotated scans. This model closes a large part of that gap. 10.5281/zenodo.22879549, Apache-2.0), a general print-and-handwriting segmenter trained on Latin, Arabic and Greek script corpora. Cairo Genizah, drawn from the KTIV project of the National Library of Israel (at most 3 pages per manuscript; 112 manuscripts held out for validation; manuscripts that overlap our evaluation benchmarks removed). Line targets were derived from the KTIV word coordinates with an ink-estimated baseline; writing KTIV does not transcribe was painted out so that no…

Compatibility and lineage
Reported languages: he, arc, jrb, ar
Base-model lineage was not included.
Parameter count is not a RAM/VRAM requirement. Check precision, quantization, context length and runtime compatibility in the model card; no hardware or API-cost claim is inferred here.
Use and evaluate
Check license terms and access requirements first. Review the model card’s documented loading instructions, evaluations and safety limitations. Benchmark scores are not imported by this directory, and popularity is not an accuracy ranking.
No model weights are downloaded or executed by AltAPIs. Never enable remote model code without reviewing it.
