Zu FOSS-Lösungen: Habe auf Android die beiden "OCR" genannten Apps ausprobiert, die beide auf #Tesseract 5 aufsetzen.
Die App von Michael Totschnig ist eher für die Verwendung als Service ausgelegt (es gibt da eine Funktion "Test", mit der ein vorbereitetes Foto geOCRt werden kann, aber das war's). Für Hardcore-Techies only.
Die App von Shubham hat ein GUI für das OCR: Bild aufnehmen, zuschneiden/drehen. Immer noch Handarbeit, aber jetzt geführt.
Then I was asked for #berkeley, and this was the first real inflection point for the project.
Berkeley didn't use Legistar. It didn't use any system I had seen before, and it had minutes going back to 1905.
This was going to be prohibitively expensive using AWS' OCR tool, so I had to get creative.
This was where I started exploring #tesseract, and building a pipeline for this project that could run entirely on one machine.
3/n
@inkorrupt Ich habe munkeln hören, dass gerade ein paar Leute daran sitzen, aber der Vorgang zieht sich ganz schön hin. Ist ja auch ein ordentlicher Batzen schlechter Scans. #Tesseract muss ganz schön durchatmen. Wenn das Ergebnis brauchbar ist, werden vermutlich noch eine Menge Fehler drin sein. Aber das wäre immer noch besser als gar keine Suchmöglichkeit.

It is that simple.
The resulting text file may not be perfect, and you may have to tweak it somewhat.
See the man page for more options.
Hat schon mal jemand mit #imagemagick ein Bild von einem digitalen Display für #tesseract OCR aufbereitet? Wie sähe eine näherungsweise sauber arbeitende Zeile für #convert hinsichtlich Schärfung, Kontrastverbesserung und Graustufenkonversion aus? Retoot gerne gesehen.
Every now & then, I give #ChatGPT a scan of my handwriting to test its skills in working with #handwrittentexts. Initially, it responded that it could not process the scans or gave me entirely fictional output, but today it got almost everything right. These results are better than those I achieved with #HWR models in #Tesseract & #OCR4all without additional training. I also asked ChatGPT what it "thought" about my writing & it called it "consistently shaped & large with stylistic strokes."
Looks like #TheDearHunter is coming back to Europe this year at #BeProgMyFriend in Spain and #Euroblast in Germany, both in September. Alongside #TesseracT!
I think "A Haven with Two Faces" from the new Spiritbox album "Tsunami Sea" is just awesome!
I've mentioned it before, but I really like the drift into atmospheric, progressive music and it reminds me of TesseracT, one of my favourite bands

I’m still annoyed with the state of #OCR in #Linux (or #FLOSS in general). Not that the need for OCR’ing hasn’t diminished by the years, as more and more of publications are already in electronic form, but every once in a while a need arises. #Tesseract’s quality is #abysmal (and not in Joey’s sense). #ABBYYFineReader used to be the best in #Windows, and once upon a time they provided a #CLI-usable OCR engine for Linux too, but not any more. #atkjuttuja #computers
#OpenSource Programm I need.
1.some sort of an apple tags like variant for the open source world ( best is file manager from #elementaryos at this point but it only support tagging 8 colours no #
(Nice to look at automation like the Mac #hazel or Mac #defaultfolderx)
2.and #preview replacement ( pdf and other files reader with most of the pro features and some sort of working #ocr ( possibly a gui of #tesseract ? ) for #Linux and #android preferably (best I found was #pdfsambasic)
@SchnDa If you are thinking less GUI and more workflow then you might also want to check #ocrd https://ocr-d.de/. Simplified it provides an abstraction over several #ocr tools including #tesseract, #calamari, #kraken, ... to build customized ocr workflows.
Hi #histodons,
I need your expertise. We want to integrate an #opensource #ocr tool into our #useGalaxy Platform so you can better analyse your texts, etc.
I worked with #tesseract some years ago, and I heard about #ocr4all.
Do you have experience with any of these - or other recommendations?
We are also integrating #tranksribus via API but want another ocr-specific option.
Looking forward to your experiences!

@lavaeolus have worked with #tesseract but not via a GUI - Thanks for this.
My Album Of The Year is: "Lingua Ignota Pt. 1" by Persefone.
I chose the album as my AOTY because I was eagerly awaiting the release and not a single song on the EP disappoints! Every single one picks me up and combines the familiar Persefone sound without being stingy with refreshing new elements. I attended their live concert shortly after the releases and couldn't be happier! Great band, awesome show, nice crowd! Can't wait for Pt. 2!
There were 3 more candidates for my AOTY. In order of preference:
TesseracT - War of Being
DVNE - Voidkind
VOLA - Friend of a Phantom
Que programas #OCR #OpenSource recomendais para #Linux?
Já experimentei vários baseados em #tesseract e descobri recentemente o #Rescribe que faz um trabalho razoável.
Hey, #Android friends.
Can anyone recommend a recently updated Text Recognition / OCR app which is open source?
All the ones on F-Droid are outdated. I need something which works offline rather than posting to the cloud.
Any thoughts?
