[sword-devel] Bibledit - USFM2OSIS export getting redone

2008-04-24 Thread Peter von Kaehne
Hi,

I thought I should give you all a heads up that Teus Benshop is planning
just now to expand/redo the existing USFM2OSIS export mechanism in
Bibledit.

See here: http://savannah.nongnu.org/task/?8075

I am thinking this might be of interest to some here on the mailing list
- particular as he is normally extremely fast in putting his plans into
practice. I have used in the past Bibledit to produce modules where
usfm2osis.pl had difficulties. It had a nice way of steamrollering
through USFM encoding problems and get on nevertheless, while
usfm2osis.pl would flake out - which was very helpful in its way.

Peter

[sword-devel] Neural Networks and Optical Character Recognition

2008-04-24 Thread David Haslam

It seems to me that there must be a number of Bible related digitization
projects around the world where those involved may not be taking full
advantage of the use of Neural Network computing in OCR applications.  This
2003 article by Alex Cherkasov covers some of the techniques involved.
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/dotnet/simple_ocr.aspx
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/dotnet/simple_ocr.aspx 

The author's company includes products in this application area, for both
the .NET environment and Delphi.
http://www.xpidea.com/ http://www.xpidea.com/ 

Prices for these Neural Network code libraries are quite reasonable.

Proper selection of software tools could speed up the digitization of other
public domain Bible editions in various languages.  Further discussion on
this topic is welcome, especially if any forum members have expertise in
this area.

First, how proven are the improvements over the current methods?

Second, how likely is that you will lead a free software implementation?

[sword-devel] Project Runeberg

2008-04-24 Thread David Haslam

Project Runeberg is an initiative patterned after Project Gutenberg that
publishes freely available electronic versions of books significant to the
culture and history of the Nordic countries. 

As the works hosted include various Nordic Bibles, and a search of SWORD Dev
did not return any results for Runeberg, I thought it warrants a mention.
