SHAPECLUSTERING(1)

NAME
shapeclustering - shape clustering training for Tesseract

SYNOPSIS
shapeclustering -D output_dir -U unicharset -O mfunicharset -F font_props -X xheights FILE...

DESCRIPTION
shapeclustering(1) takes extracted feature .tr files (generated by tesseract(1) run in a special mode from box files) and produces a file shapetable and an enhanced unicharset. This program is still experimental, and is not required (yet) for training Tesseract.

OPTIONS

-U FILE
    The unicharset generated by unicharset_extractor(1).

-D dir
    Directory to write output files to.

-F font_properties_file
    (Input) font properties file, where each line is of the following form, where each field other than the font name is 0 or 1:

-X xheights_file
    (Input) x heights file, each line is of the following form, where xheight is calculated as the pixel x height of a character drawn at 32pt on 300 dpi. [ That is, if base x height + ascenders + descenders = 133, how much is x height? ]

-O FILE
    The output unicharset that will be given to combine_tessdata(1).
