Mexican Marriage record database

Description

This work takes place in the context of the “FamilySearch” database proposed for the structure recognition competition during HIP’2013 workshop (satellite of ICDAR 2013)/

This competition focus on the localisation of 4 regions of interest inside of documents, and then a clustering in order to gather similar fields. A proposed metric enables to evaluate the final clustering, but not the field localisation. We propose a manually built ground-truth of the position of the two fields, year and month, that can be used to evaluate to field localisation step.
