It seems his examples include logos and such. Some of those services could be tuned for OCRing books and documents, which should be the bulk of OCR use cases in commercial applications. Since there's usually a trade-off between flexibility vs. accuracy, I wouldn't be surprised to see inverted results w/ a different dataset. Might be worth doing the test.
- gajju3588 9y agoAny idea how to find a good labeled dataset for this usecase ?
- dalys 9y agohttps://www.gutenberg.org https://www.gutenberg.org might have this. Some books available are just OCRed. Some are proof read and corrected. Not sure if scanned image sources are available?
- gajju3588 9y agoTesting needs some labeled dataset. Is there some good site to find publicly available datasets ?
- hcarvalhoalves 9y agoThere is this one to test against Project Gutenberg, but you have to request by mail: [1] http://ciir.cs.umass.edu/downloads/ocr-evaluation/ http://ciir.cs.umass.edu/downloads/ocr-evaluation/
