Any good alternative to Adobe Scan?
Came across Open Note Scanner. Last updated 2 years ago, I think, but it fits the bill.

Here is a manga my friend is working on and I help from time to time with the story. Chapter 1 enjoy!
If you can't borrow a multi-function printer at school or somewhere, try using this or this app instead of just taking photos with your phone.

Open source alternative to Office Lens?
You can try OpenScan or OpenNoteScanner.

Show HN: OpenScan – open-source document scanner app
I've used OpenNoteScan before:
* https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.todobom.opennotescanner/
* https://github.com/allgood/OpenNoteScanner
It works OK but it looks a bit old, and you need to install OpenCV Manager separately, outside of F-Droid for it to work.
I can deal with it, but there's no way I could ever be able to convince anybody else, especially non-tech people to use it.
This one looks like a winner in terms of UX, so I'll be using it from now on, Thank you for creating it!

Leveraging GPT-4 for PDF Data Extraction: A Comprehensive Guide
PyTesseract Module [ Github ] EasyOCR Module [ Github ] PaddlePaddle OCR [ Github ]

What is the best repo for hand written text recognition?
My default recommendation for OCR is https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR but most of the examples there are not handwritten - so I'm not sure how well it'll handle it this time.
-
Ask HN: Best way to perform complex OCR task in 2023?
Other than EasyOCR and Tesseract, PaddleOCR (https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR) is probably the most well known open-source OCR solution.
What are you planning to do with the text after detecting / recognizing it? How fast does the detection / recognition need to be in order to be useful?

Show HN: BetterOCR combines and corrects multiple OCR engines with an LLM
Yup! But I'm still exploring options. (any recommendations would be welcomed!) Here are some candidates I'm considering:
- https://github.com/mindee/doctr
- https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmocr
- https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR (honestly I don't know Mandarin so I'm a bit stuck)
- https://github.com/clovaai/donut - While it's primarily an "OCR-free document understanding transformer," I think it's worth experimenting with. Think I can sort this out by letting the LLM reason through it multiple times (although this will impact performance)
- yesterday got a suggestion to consider https://github.com/kakaobrain/pororo - I don't think development is still active but the results are pretty great on Korean text

How would you go about driving contextual data from images?
For images with text, if you want to do visual qa, document classification, table/key information extraction, checkout https://huggingface.co/blog/document-ai https://github.com/philschmid/document-ai-transformers https://github.com/google-research/pix2struct https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/release/2.6/ppstructure/README.md

OCR at Edge on Cloudflare Constellation
EasyOCR is a popular project if you are in an environment where you can use run Python and PyTorch (https://github.com/JaidedAI/EasyOCR). Other open source projects of note are PaddleOCR (https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR) and docTR (https://github.com/mindee/doctr).

Seeking Advice for Improving OCR Accuracy in a Code Snippet Reader Project
I think you can train tesseract with custom data if you have enough, or you can use deep learning models like https://pyimagesearch.com/2020/08/17/ocr-with-keras-tensorflow-and-deep-learning or https://www.google.com/amp/s/nanonets.com/blog/attention-ocr-for-text-recogntion/amp/ or try other existing tools like paddle-ocr https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR

How do you parse tables in PDF with langchain? Especially, the context which is few lines above and below the table.

Donut: OCR-Free Document Understanding Transformer
When I was evaluating options a few months ago I found https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR to be a very strong contender for my use case (reading product labels), but you'll definitely want to put together some representative docs/images and test a bunch of solutions to see what works for you.
