That's really awesome, but it feels like cheating to call it the OCR record holder. It's really OCR + context. However it would be interesting if you could apply the same idea at the word and sentence level of written language. I'm guessing there are people that already do this.
- chongli 7y agoit feels like cheating to call it the OCR record holder This is how humans recognize text though. For the most part, humans don’t try to read languages we don’t understand. To deny a computer access to context is like asking a human to transcribe a language they don’t understand.
- mlyle 7y agoI'm a pretty fast typist but if you ask me to transcribe latin text of gibberish or of a language I don't know.... not so fast. A lot of it is how much I have to slow down to be accurate in recognizing characters.
