OCRjustering

OCRjustering refers to the process of correcting errors that occur during optical character recognition (OCR). OCR technology converts images of text into machine-readable text, but it is not always perfect. Common OCR errors include misinterpreting similar characters (e.g., '0' for 'O', '1' for 'l'), missing characters, or adding extraneous characters. OCRjustering aims to rectify these inaccuracies through various methods.

These correction methods can be manual, where a human reviews the OCR output and makes necessary edits. Alternatively, automated approaches exist, often employing dictionaries, language models, or context-aware algorithms to identify and fix probable errors. For instance, a spell checker can identify and suggest corrections for misspelled words that resulted from OCR errors. More advanced systems might analyze the visual features of the original image in conjunction with the recognized text to improve accuracy. The goal of OCRjustering is to achieve a high level of accuracy in the converted text, making it suitable for further processing, searching, or archiving. The effectiveness of OCRjustering often depends on the quality of the original document, the complexity of the text, and the sophistication of the correction tools used.
