Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012 No fair
conversion apps for GNU/Linux apart from OCR engines, but...
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012 OCR !=
Document Conversion (it only deals with chars) (does not consider the layout) (does not distinguish contents)
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012 What's needed
is Document Analysis and Recognition (conversion of documents to an electronic format) (first projects in the 80s)
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012 How it
works
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012 So many
layouts... CC Photo by: http://www.flickr.com/photos/uber-tuber/
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012 Layouts vary
with the type of document What works on detecting one, won't work on others
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012 OCRFeeder focuses
on contents, not on layouts!
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012 Key concept:
If a document image can be divided in windows of 1 (content) or 0 (not content), then it is possible to group all the 1s and outline the contents
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012 Recognition: System-wide
OCR engines are used Engines are configured from the GUI or XML files
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012 Most known
free OCR engines are detected and configured automatically: * Tesseract * GOCR * OCRAD * Cuneiform
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012 Exportation formats:
ODT HTML Plain text PDF
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012 User interaction:
Users can edit everything and review the algorithm's results So, UI can work in attended and unattended ways CLI only works in an unattended mode
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012 Demo time!
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012 Other features:
* PDF importation * Unpaper preprocessor * Font style edition * Image deskewing * OCR results cleaning * Project saving/loading
Joaquim Rocha (Igalia) · OCRFeeder · GUADEC 2012 Future: *
More exportation formats: HOCR, etc. * Make OCR engines' management easier
