2010-11-29 - V3.01
|
|
* Removed old/dead serialise/deserialze methods on *LISTIZED classes.
|
|
* Total rewrite of DENORM to better encapsulate operation and make
|
|
for potential to extract features from images.
|
|
* Thread-safety! Moved all critical globals and statics to members of the appropriate class. Tesseract is now thread-safe (multiple instances can be used in parallel in multiple threads.) with the minor exception that some control parameters are still global and affect all threads.
|
|
* Added Cube, a new recognizer for Arabic. Cube can also be used in combination with normal Tesseract for other languages with an improvement in accuracy at the cost of (much) lower speed. *There is no training module for Cube yet.*
|
|
* `OcrEngineMode` in `Init` replaces `AccuracyVSpeed` to control cube.
|
|
* Greatly improved segmentation search with consequent accuracy and speed improvements, especially for Chinese.
|
|
* Added `PageIterator` and `ResultIterator` as cleaner ways to get the full results out of Tesseract, that are not currently provided by any of the `TessBaseAPI::Get*` methods. All other methods, such as the `ETEXT_STRUCT` in particular are deprecated and will be deleted in the future.
|
|
* ApplyBoxes totally rewritten to make training easier. It can now cope with touching/overlapping training characters, and a new boxfile format allows word boxes instead of character boxes, BUT to use that you have to have already boostrapped the language with character boxes. "Cyclic dependency" on traineddata.
|
|
* Auto orientation and script detection added to page layout analysis.
|
|
* Deleted *lots* of dead code.
|
|
* Fixxht module replaced with scalable data-driven module.

|
|
* Fixed a couple of memory leaks.
|
|
* Fixed font labels on output text. (Not perfect, but a lot better than before.)
|
|
* Cleanup and more bug fixes
|
|
* Special treatments for Hindi.
|
|
* Support for build in VS2010 with Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 (thanks to Michael Lutz)
