Development of LOGOSCAN II.

Abstract

The purpose of this report was to test and evaluate the Logoscan II Optical Character Reader System to assess its potential for conversion of free formatted multifont typeset Russian text to a computer processable format compatible with the Russian-English machine translation system at Foreign Technology Division (FTD). Logoscan II scanned 27 pages of Russian text supplied by FTD at approximately 30 characters per second with an error rate of 1.0 - 2.0%. This report discusses the methodology used, technical problems, results, and manpower cost for a production system.
