Hi,

this is to announce a new project on sourceforge called BOCRA to
develop an OCR software targeted towards Bengali, but also useable for
other scripts, especially ones similar to Bengali. See the webpage

http://bocra.sf.net

for more details (the page is slightly outdated, but mostly accurate).
There's a mailing list too, so feel free to ask questions there. 
Before you get your hopes up, note that BOCRA does not work out of the

box (it needs to be trained for every new font) and is very unlikely
to work well with noisy input images.


Status and availability:

The software is currently in alpha status (by my definition), i.e. it
mostly works to my satisfaction in most of my machines. It uses Qt 4
and R (both of which are required to compile the sources). The sources
(licensed under the GNU GPL) are hosted as a subversion archive on
sourceforge, so you need a subversion client to get up to date
sources. A snapshot tarball is also available, which you can download
without a subversion client.

OS requirements:

Both Qt 4 and R are available on all major platforms. However, I have
tested BOCRA only on Linux, so I don't know if it will work on other
platforms (e.g. Windows). There will probably be issues in linking Qt
and R together on Windows, so I don't expect it to work out of the
box.

I can't see what you wrote, so I assume it's khanda-ta. If so, then
yes, I haven't updated my scripts/fonts yet. BOCRA itself doesn't know
much about Bengali though (just the bare amount necessary to reorder
i-kaar, e-kaar, o-kaar, etc), so you can always add it with a new name
and it will show up in the romanized output. It's very easy to fix the
code that converts this to unicode.

Hi,

I would like to ask one question. During OCR operation (assuming
I have already trained it) what should one do if there is an
illustration (non-text element) in the scanned image?

For example, it is pretty common to have pictures of King/Queen
within the text in History books.
