Abstract

This project compares state-of-the-art Free Software Optical Character Recognition (OCR) programs. Particularly, their results over old books pages were evaluated. Moreover, in order to optimize the recognition for this kind of data input, methods that are not implemented in the programs were proposed and their results were analyzed as well.
