How good is good do you say?
We got a pretty good results with CER at 4% and WER at 15%!
This was on a limited dataset used to test and train which most likely means that if you introduced an even larger dataset with greater variations in handwriting style for testing the numbers might be even worse.
Very simplified: A risk of a character wrong every 20th character and a word wrong every 7th word. The SER was around 20%.
There's an reason why no one has released a good model for western letters yet and why companies pay up to 1€ for capturing data from 10 handwritten pages.
It will come but OCR isn't as sexy as developing text2image solutions.
None of that made Tesseract excel in capturing handwritten text...
It wasn't possible a year ago when pos6ted around with tesseract. Things might have changed during the last couple of months though.
To train an AI to recognize handwriting you need a huge dataset of handwriting examples. That is millions of samples of handwritten text + information about what the written text says in every example).
This is why the best engines only exists as a service in the cloud. The OCR engines you can install lovely that are acceptable, but far from perfect, are commercial. Parascript FormXtra is one of the better commercial ones.
The only OCR Engine that's free and really good is Tesseract OCR but it doesn't handle handwritten text.
I'm openly critical against the whole NATO thing and DSA but you're just being silly, ignorant, a troll or all of the above.

Russia essentially attacked the guy sitting next to them on the bus because they felt the guy was sitting too close.
Of course everyone on the bus gets scared of the idiot attacking people!
Not even if Windows and Linux were on different partitions on the same disk would Windows be able to access the files on the Linux partition without the key.
Just pointing out that s separate disks doesn't change anything. The data, in its encrypted form, will be inaccessible without the decryption key.

Yes Alex, I'll take "legislation that would make French farmers setting up guillotines in Paris" for 500.

Unable to understand and/or admit that both sides can be bad. It's ok to admit the "your team" did some nasty shit and it doesn't in any way cancel out what the other "team" did.
Also, Winning an argument doesn't in any way make you a winner. Actually, an argument that someone "won" often doesn't lead to a change for the better or even make anyone convinced that your arguments were valid.
