Performs OCR on a list of images using Tesseract and performs fuzzy string matching with a given list of strings.
Project description
Performs OCR on a list of images using Tesseract and performs fuzzy string matching with a given list of strings.
Tested against Windows 10 / Python 3.11 / Anaconda
pip install tesseractrapidfuzz
This function takes a path to the Tesseract OCR executable, a list of image paths or URLs,
a list of strings to compare against the recognized text, and optional fuzzy matching settings.
It returns a pandas DataFrame with OCR results and fuzzy matching scores.
Args:
tesseract_path (str): Path to the Tesseract OCR executable.
allpics (Union[list, tuple]): List of image paths, URLs, or other image data sources.
strings_to_compare (Union[list, tuple, np.ndarray]): List of strings for fuzzy matching.
compare_single_words (bool, optional): Enable fuzzy matching on individual words.
Defaults to True.
compare_grouped_words (bool, optional): Enable fuzzy matching on grouped words.
Defaults to True.
scorer_single_words (valid_scorer, optional): Fuzzy matching scorer for single words.
Defaults to "WRatio".
scorer_grouped_words (valid_scorer, optional): Fuzzy matching scorer for grouped words.
Defaults to "WRatio".
add_after_tesseract_path (str, optional): Additional arguments for Tesseract after
the input image path. Defaults to an empty string.
add_at_the_end (str, optional): Additional arguments to append to the Tesseract command.
Defaults to "-l eng --psm 3".
**kwargs: Additional keyword arguments to control the fuzzy matching process.
Returns:
pd.DataFrame: A DataFrame with OCR results and fuzzy matching scores, including columns:
- 'id_img': Image ID
- 'id_word': Word ID within the image
- 'ocr_result': Recognized text
- 'start_x': Starting X-coordinate of the bounding box
- 'end_x': Ending X-coordinate of the bounding box
- 'start_y': Starting Y-coordinate of the bounding box
- 'end_y': Ending Y-coordinate of the bounding box
- 'conf': Confidence score
- 'grouped_text': Grouped text for fuzzy matching
- 'compared_grouped_words_similarity': Fuzzy matching score for grouped words
- 'compared_grouped_words_index': Index of the matched string for grouped words
- 'compared_grouped_words_value': Matched value for grouped words
- 'compared_single_words_similarity': Fuzzy matching score for single words
- 'compared_single_words_index': Index of the matched string for single words
- 'compared_single_words_value': Matched value for single words
