Hi mentors,

I would like to start writting proposal for OCR implementation in digikam. So far I have general idea of Dplugins (thanks to Giles github link) and have gone through kooka implementation ( though it's little hard to understand it all this early to be honest ).

But I want to give it a shot so please could you please tell your final expectations in proposal.

Thank you

Regards

Hello all

Just to update , I like both of projects I mentioned above that is tesseract and face detection one.

I am currently going through all understanding of plugin system and how kooka has implemented tesseract.

Any kind of guidance/help will be much appreciated.

Thank you

Hi all,

I mailed earlier also regarding contribution to digikam but due to some academic responsibilities I wasn't able to solve any bugs but I have a basic idea of the codebase and since GSOC is around the corner, I would like to participate and contribute to digikam as I really like the application

I have programming experience in C++. OpenCV and Neural Net (python), ready to learn anything if required.
I have built DigiKam from the source already. I would be very grateful if I could be assigned some task related to the project. Otherwise, I could start solving bugs related to "Face Tags" on Bugzilla and I'm currently going through the documentation.

These are two projects I am interested in working :

1)  Improve Image Quality Sorter algorithms

2)  Faces Engine Improvements

Thanks 

Regards
