Zusammenfassung: | The OpenITI team has achieved Optical Character Recognition (OCR) accuracy
rates for classical Arabic-script texts in the high nineties. These numbers are
based on our tests of seven different Arabic-script texts of varying quality
and typefaces, totaling over 7,000 lines. These accuracy rates not only
represent a distinct improvement over the actual accuracy rates of the various
proprietary OCR options for classical Arabic-script texts, but, equally
important, they are produced using an open-source OCR software, thus enabling
us to make this Arabic-script OCR technology freely available to the broader
Islamic, Persian, and Arabic Studies communities. |
