This is addressed to those of you that are students at a university or those who work with students.
I have a specific OCR task that likely involves some experimentation. It involves OCR of the cursive handwriting of a single individual. Based on what I have done with tesseract and what I have read in this forum, the task likely involves training tesseract on the handwriting of that individual, either based on whole words or based on individual characters. Here is my Request: * If anybody has recommendations about how to OCR cursive handwriting or thinks it is not feasible, please reply to this post. * If anybody wants to discuss the practical details of doing this task, funding an internship or project, please email me directly at [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Background: The following posts may provide perspective: http://groups.google.com/group/tesseract-ocr/browse_thread/thread/62c9cd7db19742c7/8704b25ed6eb9fdc?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=julha#8704b25ed6eb9fdc http://groups.google.com/group/tesseract-ocr/browse_thread/thread/f04c5f68094f74c2/1b2fe53ca9bb5456?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=handwriting+words#1b2fe53ca9bb5456 This communication, including any attachments, may contain information that is proprietary, privileged, confidential or legally exempt from disclosure.
