  • Github packages/Apps that are must have for Physicists using Linux
    3 projects | /r/AskPhysics | 16 Apr 2023
    I have recently discovered a few very helpful github packages which help me make notes while listening to lectures. These would be 1. pix2tex (allows you to scan an equation and convert it to latex) 2. pix2text (allows you to scan an equation with words in it and converts it to latex and text) 3. Tesseract (not really a physics related package, but it does allow me to copy notes from transcripts easily) 4. Mathpix an app that performs all the above mentioned operations better than the packages above, but one which ain't free.

    Pix2Text itself trains a mathematical formula detection model to detect mathematical formulas contained in the images. The recognized mathematical formulas patches are handed over to LaTeXOCR for recognition, while the rest text parts are handed over to the OCR engine CnOCR for recognition.

  • Pix2Text (P2T): a Free Alternative to Mathpix
    1 project | /r/LaTeX | 17 Feb 2023
    Pix2Text (P2T) is a free open-source Python replacement for Mathpix, and is now able to perform the core functions of Mathpix. Pix2Text supports the recognition of mixed images containing both text and formulas, returning results similar to Mathpix. Its text recognition supports Chinese and English.
