Towards Hierarchical Structure Understanding of Newspaper Images
Understanding newspaper images remains a challenging task due to their complex, nested hierarchical structures and dense, heterogeneous layouts. In this paper, we explore two complementary approaches for newspaper structure understanding. First, we present a modular bottom-up pipeline that combines state-of-the-art open-source models: YOLO for layout detection, LayoutReader for reading order prediction, and a custom algorithm for article segmentation. This approach leverages existing robust components while maintaining flexibility and interpretability. Second, we introduce Tiramisu (Tiered Tra
