Open Source Java OCR Software

A Java JNA wrapper for Tesseract OCR API

Neuroph OCR - Handwriting Recognition is developed to recognize hand written letter and characters. It's engine derived's from the Java Neural Network Framework - Neuroph and as such it can be used as a standalone project or a Neuroph plug in.

DjVu++ is a user-friendly program that used to manipulate DjVu file formats such as eBooks with a penalty of editing features. The program introduce a free replacement for the property PDF format with similar resolution and smaller file size DjVu++ also support OCR to handle text in scanned books and images. The program shows good performance for English. In addition to the Arabic language to lead free and commercial software in this area. The main features of DjVu++ program are: o Manipulate DjVu files. o Support smaller size than PDF with the same performance. o DjVu++ supports two languages in the OCR technique (Arabic and English). o Read multiple documents at the same time with the new tabs feature. o DjVu++ supports multiple formats:  Convert PDF document into DjVu format with smaller file size and the same performance.  Convert DjVu into PDF format.  Combine images to a single DjVu document. Perform OCR operations on multiple image formats.

It converts scanned image into text, braille and audio format. The image should be scanned with atleast 300 dpi for better accuracy.

CRGREP searches for matching text in databases, various document formats, archives and other difficult to access resources. A command line tool for name and content text matching in database tables, plain files, MS Office documents, PDF, archives, MP3 audio, image meta-data, scanned documents, maven dependencies and web resources. CRGREP will search resources within resources of any arbitrary combination or depth, so text within a document within a zip archive, and so on. Here you will find binary downloads and discussion (https://sourceforge.net/p/crgrep/discussion/) . The actual development and issue tracking can be found here: https://bitbucket.org/cryanfuse/crgrep

TCR Neuroph - Text Character Recognition is java tool developed to recognize scanned text , using Java Neural Network Framework - Neuroph

Realtime bigdata tool at the bit level based on immutable AVL forest which can be run in memory or, in future versions, as a merkle forest like a blockchain. Main object is a sparse bit string (Bits) that efficiently scales up to 2^63 bits normally compressed as forest has duplicated substrings. Bits objects support reading bit, byte, short, int, or long (Java primitives) at any bit index in 64 bit range. Example: instead of building a class to hold a header and then data, represent all of that as Bits, subranges of them, and ints for sizes of its parts. Expansion ability for other kinds of compression, since Bits is a Java interface. Main functions on bits are substring, concat, number of 0 or 1 bits, and number of bits (size). All those operations can be done millions of times per second regardless of size because the AVL forest reuses existing branches recursively. Theres a scalar (originally for copy/pasting subranges of sounds) and a bit Java package. Sparse n dimensional matrix.

The DjVu Reference Library 3.5 was released by Lizardtech under the GNU General Public License version 2. DjVuLibre-3.5 was developed by Leon Bottou and others as a "Derived Work" of the DjVu Reference Library 3.5. As such, it is also subject to the GNU General Public License version 2. Several patents apply to two very specific aspects of DjVu and DjVuLibre. The patents cover a particular aspect of the ZP-coder (the arithmetic coder used in DjVu and implemented in libdjvu/ZPCodec.cpp) and the background masking technique used in the IW44 wavelet encoder (implemented in libdjvu/IW44EncodeCodec.cpp). Most patents are owned by AT&T. LizardTech has very broad rights to them and grants free and permanent licenses to them for the purpose of building GPL software with the DjVu Reference Library. The grant is materialized by two paragraphs in the headers of the DjVu Reference Library source files. Lizardtech also published an official statement about the open source.
