The MIDV-250 dataset captures a tension central to modern computer vision: the promise of robust document understanding versus the ethical and privacy questions that accompany datasets built from identity documents. On the technical side, MIDV-250 offers diversity in capture conditions (varying lighting, perspective, noise), comprehensive annotations, and multiple document types, making it a valuable benchmark for tasks such as layout analysis, OCR, and document detection. Models trained and tested on MIDV-250 can learn resilience to real-world distortions—skew, blur, shadows—and provide measurable comparisons across architectures and preprocessing pipelines.

MIDV-250 is a publicly available dataset of identity document images used for research in document analysis, optical character recognition (OCR), and identity-document detection and recognition. It contains a large set of scanned and photographed ID card images with ground-truth annotations (bounding boxes, OCR labels, document classes) intended for training and evaluating models that read and verify identity documents under varied conditions.
