-# Docling Layout Model
+🚀 **`heron`** is the **default layout analysis model** of the [Docling project](https://github.com/docling-project/docling), designed for robust and high-quality document layout understanding.
 
-`docling-layout-heron` is the Layout Model of [Docling project](https://github.com/docling-project/docling).
+📄 For an in-depth description of the **model architecture**, **training datasets**, and **evaluation methodology**, please refer to our technical report:
 
-This model uses the [RT-DETRv2](https://github.com/lyuwenyu/RT-DETR/tree/main/rtdetrv2_pytorch) architecture and has been trained from scratch on a variety of document datasets.
