Accurate OCR?
·
· Score: 2, Informative
I work in the speech recognition field and work with the researchers at BBN alot (they might sound familiar, can you say @ sign inventors) and they are always bragging about their OCR, especially for foriegn languages. They have a very different approach to OCR (they dont do Character recognition at all, rather word recognition) and thus their accuracy is very very high. Plus they are government funded for this sort of thing (can you say NSA?) I would recommend contacting them directly, not just through the website, as you are an educational institution they will probably price a very good deal with you. Good Luck.
