A common approach for improving OCR quality is a post-processing step based on models correcting misdetected characters and tokens. These models are typically trained on aligned pairs of OCR read text and their manually corrected…
Optical character recognition (OCR) is a vital process that involves the extraction of handwritten or printed text from scanned or printed images, converting it into a format that can be understood and processed by machines. This enables…
Text recognition is a long-standing research problem for document digitalization. Existing approaches are usually built based on CNN for image understanding and RNN for char-level text generation. In addition, another language model is…
Solving the problem of Optical Character Recognition (OCR) on printed text for Latin and its derivative scripts can now be considered settled due to the volumes of research done on English and other High-Resourced Languages (HRL). However,…
A crucial component for the scene text based reasoning required for TextVQA and TextCaps datasets involve detecting and recognizing text present in the images using an optical character recognition (OCR) system. The current systems are…
Scientific articles published prior to the "age of digitization" (~1997) require Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to transform scanned documents into machine-readable text, a process that often produces errors. We develop a pipeline for…
Traditional Optical Character Recognition (OCR) systems that generate text of highly inflectional Indic languages like Hindi tend to suffer from poor accuracy due to a wide alphabet set, compound characters and difficulty in segmenting…
Document comparison typically relies on optical character recognition (OCR) as its core technology. However, OCR requires the selection of appropriate language models for each document and the performance of multilingual or hybrid models…
We propose a method of curating high-quality comparable training data for low-resource languages with monolingual annotators. Our method involves using a carefully selected set of images as a pivot between the source and target languages by…
Document alignment and registration play a crucial role in numerous real-world applications, such as automated form processing, anomaly detection, and workflow automation. Traditional methods for document alignment rely on image-based…
