<div class="sectionbody">
|
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>The engine was developed at Hewlett Packard Laboratories Bristol and at
|
|
Hewlett Packard Co, Greeley Colorado between 1985 and 1994, with some more
|
|
changes made in 1996 to port to Windows, and some C++izing in 1998. A
|
|
lot of the code was written in C, and then some more was written in C++.
|
|
The C\++ code makes heavy use of a list system using macros. This predates
|
|
stl, was portable before stl, and is more efficient than stl lists, but has
|
|
the big negative that if you do get a segmentation violation, it is hard to
|
|
debug.</p></div>
|
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>Version 2.00 brought Unicode (UTF-8) support, six languages, and the ability
|
|
to train Tesseract.</p></div>
|
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>Tesseract was included in UNLV’s Fourth Annual Test of OCR Accuracy.
|
|
See <a href="https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/docs/blob/master/AT-1995.pdf">https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/docs/blob/master/AT-1995.pdf</a>. With Tesseract 2.00,
|
|
scripts are now included to allow anyone to reproduce some of these tests.
|
|
See <a href="https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/wiki/TestingTesseract">https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/wiki/TestingTesseract</a> for more
|
|
details.</p></div>
|
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>Tesseract 3.00 adds a number of new languages, including Chinese, Japanese,
|
|
and Korean. It also introduces a new, single-file based system of managing
|
|
language data.</p></div>
|
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>Tesseract 3.02 adds BiDirectional text support, the ability to recognize
|
|
multiple languages in a single image, and improved layout analysis.</p></div>
