Automatically extracting geometric content from historical astronomical diagrams using a transformer-based model.
Samenvatting
The article introduces a dataset of 303 historical astronomical diagrams annotated with line segments, circles, and arcs. It presents a model that predicts multiple geometric primitives using deformable attention and iterative refinement. The approach outperforms existing methods by jointly detecting lines, circles, and arcs. Training solely on synthetic data, the model generalizes well to challenging real datasets. The study highlights the importance of multi-scale features, contrastive denoising, and query selection in improving prediction accuracy.
