where is the frontend?

[bertsky]

Repository names vs. package names are very confusing here. IIUC you have:

package	repo
page-content-detection	ocr4all-page-content
ocr4all-page-content-detection	?
ocr4all-segmentation	ocr4all-segmentation
ocr4all-pixel-classifier	page-segmentation
ocr4all-pixel-classifier-frontend	?

IIRC ocr4all-segmentation used to depend on ocr4all-pixel-classifier, but now depends on ocr4all-page-content-detection, which is different than the pkg name of ocr4all-page-content.

Also, the README here says:

For training and direct usage, install ocr4all-pixel-classifier-frontend. This package only contains the library code.

And then all the examples use that CLI. (No description of the API or the model training here.)

But where is that repo?

I'm not sure what ocr4all-page-content-detection and ocr4all-segmentation are about. If I remember correctly, that was an experimental tool that was never fully made ocrd-compatible.

The frontend was hosted on our university gitlab, I've now added a mirror in this github org. It contains examples of model training.

Note that no one is actively working on any of these repositories. I sometimes merge pull requests in my free time, but I don't have time for comprehensive API documentation.
