Gamera Framework for Document Recognition

Abstract:
Gamera is not a packaged document recognition system, but a toolkit for building document image recognition systems. It makes the development of new recognition system quite easy, though this still requires some time commitment. Gamera is a cross platform library for the Python programming language. Apart from providing a set of commonly needed functionality for document image analysis, Gamera additionally allows for custom extensions as C++ or Python Plugins
