Modern Greek data issues about tessdata HOT 10 OPEN

https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/langdata_lstm/tree/main/ell contains training text and a word list with the same issues, so the model was trained to produce such results.

from tessdata.

Right, so how can this be fixed? For example I can see in https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/langdata_lstm/blob/main/ell/desired_characters and https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/langdata_lstm/blob/main/ell/ell.unicharset the existence of polytonic characters which should not be there.

In a first step you could send a pull request for langdata_lstm which fixes the files there. But finally new trainings are required, maybe based on the existing models for Greek.

OK, I may need some guidance please. I created a fork. So do I simply have to remove non-valid characters from above mentioned files?

I also see

tessedit_load_sublangs grc
https://github.com/chopinesque/langdata_lstm_modern_greek/blob/main/ell/ell.config#L2

I am not sure whether this line should be there going forward.

Remove or replace, what fits better.

from tessdata.

Thanks. If I replace, I need to know about the structure, for example,

ὶ 3 0,255,0,255,0,0,0,0,0,0 Greek 124 0 124 ὶ # ὶ [1f76 ]a

How is the 124 0 124 derived?

You can keep the unicharset file unmodified. A replacement will be created when a new training is run.

tessedit_load_sublangs grc

That line tells Tesseract to always use grc in addition to ell. Therefore wrong glyphs can also come from grc as long as that configuration is there.

Not sure then which files I should change. I don't think I have the knowledge to do any training (I also use Windows).

So this line should be removed.
