Abstract

We present how the ground-truthing tool Aletheia can be used to efficiently create training data for an open-source text recognition engine. The labelling process is sped up considerably through a top-down approach. Text content is thereby entered on region level. The characters are then propagated automatically to glyph objects. In addition, segmentation is simplified by several semi-automated tools.
