        -p '{ "model": "/path/to/the/models/textline_detection" }'

Segmentation works on raw RGB images, but respects and retains AlternativeImages from binarization steps, so it's a good idea to do binarization first, then perform the textline detection. The used binarization processor must produce an AlternativeImage for the binarized image, not replace the original raw RGB image.
