Keras-OCR is an end-to-end, trainable OCR pipeline

In plain words

Keras-OCR is an open-source optical character recognition pipeline built with Keras that can be trained end-to-end for custom OCR tasks. It is designed for developers and researchers who need to extract text from images programmatically. The system stands out by offering a complete, trainable solution rather than relying solely on pre-trained models, allowing users to adapt it to specific document types or handwriting styles.

  OCR pipeline for ML training (tables, diagrams, math, multilingual)2025 · github.com · ▲170

  Hi HN, I’ve been working on an OCR pipeline specifically optimized for machine learning dataset preparation. It’s designed to process complex academic materials — including math formulas, tables, figures, and multilingual text — and output clean, structured formats like JSON and Markdown. Some features: • Multi-stage OCR combining DocLayout-YOLO, Google Vision, MathPix, and Gemini Pro Vision • Extracts and understands diagrams, tables, LaTeX-style math, and multilingual text (Japanese/Korean/English) • Highly tuned for ML training pipelines, including dataset generation and…

  OCR Arena – A playground for OCR modelsNov 2025 · ocrarena.ai · ▲216

  I built OCR Arena as a free playground for the community to compare leading foundation VLMs and open-source OCR models side-by-side. Upload any doc, measure accuracy, and (optionally) vote for the models on a public leaderboard. It currently has Gemini 3, dots.ocr, DeepSeek, GPT5, olmOCR 2, Qwen, and a few others. If there's any others you'd like included, let me know!

  Angeldust – a fast and efficient video game▲716

  After years of solo development I'm presenting: Angeldust, an omni-compatible action RPG and building game! Website: http://angeldu.st My single server hosts 250+K active players in one giant, dynamic fantasy world. Angeldust's game server is pervasively multithreaded, implementing John Carmack's dream of processing an immutable world state each tick. Both world handling and network traffic routing uses any number of threads. For networking, a typical game session only uses ~3Kbps of bandwidth, enabling decent play even over 2G/EDGE networks. The client is programmed in C++…
