Overview of the Challenge
- 2013 iDigBio AOCR Hackathon Challenge
- overall description of The Challenge
- The Specific Task: parse OCR output to find values for these 2013 hackathon data elements
- Metrics and Evaluation to be used
- Three Data Sets
- There are three data sets, that is, three different sets of images of museum specimen labels. Participants, working alone or in groups, may work on one or more data sets as they choose. The sets have been ranked, easy, medium, hard, as an estimate of how difficult it might be to successfully get good parsed data from the OCR output from each data set.
- Accessing the Data
Frequently Asked Questions
Deliverables
- Development of OCR SaaS for use by the entire community.
- report on progress beyond parsing, accomplishments, and in-the-works
- internal / external
- summary report on progress, including metrics evaluation
- internal / external
- collected conversation / feedback from whole group (report back summary)
- Social Media
- photographs
- post to Facebook
