Toolkit for advanced OCR of poor quality documents
Project description
pero-ocr
Running stuff
Scripts (as well as tests) assume that it is possible to import pero_ocr
and its components.
For the current shell session, this can be achieved by setting PYTHONPATH
up:
export PYTHONPATH=/path/to/the/repo:$PYTHONPATH
As a more permanent solution, a very simplistic setup.py
is prepared:
python setup.py develop
Beware that the setup.py
does not promise to bring all the required stuff, e.g. setting CUDA up is up to you.
Pero can be later removed from your Python distribution by running:
python setup.py develop --uninstall
Available models
General layout analysis (printed and handwritten) with european printed OCR specialized to czech newspapers can be downloaded here.
Contributing
Working changes are expected to happen on develop
branch, so if you plan to contribute, you better check it out right during cloning:
git clone -b develop git@github.com:DCGM/pero-ocr.git pero-ocr
Testing
Currently, only unittests are provided with the code. Some of the code. So simply run your preferred test runner, e.g.:
~/pero-ocr $ green
