AI tools for character creation

The LLM-Aided OCR Project is an advanced system that enhances Optical Character Recognition (OCR) output by leveraging natural language processing techniques and large language models. It offers features like PDF to image conversion, OCR using Tesseract, error correction using LLMs, smart text chunking, markdown formatting, duplicate content removal, quality assessment, support for local and cloud-based LLMs, asynchronous processing, detailed logging, and GPU acceleration. The project provides detailed technical overview, text processing pipeline, LLM integration, token management, quality assessment, logging, configuration, and customization. It requires Python 3.12+, Tesseract OCR engine, PDF2Image library, PyTesseract, and optional OpenAI or Anthropic API support for cloud-based LLMs. The installation process involves setting up the project, installing dependencies, and configuring environment variables. Users can place a PDF file in the project directory, update input file path, and run the script to generate post-processed text. The project optimizes processing with concurrent processing, context preservation, and adaptive token management. Configuration settings include choosing between local or API-based LLMs, selecting API provider, specifying models, and setting context size for local LLMs. Output files include raw OCR output and LLM-corrected text. Limitations include performance dependency on LLM quality and time-consuming processing for large documents.
