What it's used for here

arXiv 2306.01268 (v2, February 2025). Modular pipeline (RetinaNet localisation, ResNet classification) trained on more than 5,000 annotated images and 100,000 sign bounding boxes from the Persepolis Fortification Archive (Achaemenid Elamite): localisation mAP 0.78, classifier top-5 accuracy 0.89, end-to-end top-5 0.80. Used as the benchmark for photograph-to-sign reading on a homogeneous archive.
