Installation

It's best to use pip, e.g.:

sudo pip install .

Usage

Usage: dinglehopper [OPTIONS] GT OCR [REPORT_PREFIX]

  Compare the PAGE/ALTO/text document GT against the document OCR.

  The files GT and OCR are usually a ground truth document and the result of
  an OCR software, but you may use dinglehopper to compare two OCR results.
  In that case, use --no-metrics to disable the then meaningless metrics and
  also change the color scheme from green/red to blue.

Options:
  --metrics / --no-metrics  Enable/disable metrics and green/red
  --help                    Show this message and exit.

For example:

dinglehopper some-document.gt.page.xml some-document.ocr.alto.xml

This generates report.html and report.json.

As a OCR-D processor:

ocrd-dinglehopper -m mets.xml -I OCR-D-GT-PAGE,OCR-D-OCR-TESS -O OCR-D-OCR-TESS-EVAL

This generates HTML and JSON reports in the OCR-D-OCR-TESS-EVAL filegroup.

Testing
