+
+Advanced Usage
+==============
+
+Optical character recognition is the serial execution of multiple steps, in the
+case of kraken binarization (converting color and grayscale images into bitonal
+ones), layout analysis/page segmentation (extracting topological text lines
+from an image), recognition (feeding text lines images into an classifiers),
+and finally serialization of results into an appropriate format such as hOCR or
+ALTO.
+
+Input Specification
+-------------------
+
+All kraken subcommands operating on input-output pairs, i.e. producing one
+output document for one input document follow the basic syntax:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+        $ kraken -i input_1 output_1 -i input_2 output_2 ... subcommand_1 subcommand_2 ... subcommand_n
+
+In particular subcommands may be chained.
+
+Binarization
+------------
+
+The binarization subcommand accepts almost the same parameters as
+``ocropus-nlbin``. Only options not related to binarization, e.g. skew
+detection are missing. In addition, error checking (image sizes, inversion
+detection, grayscale enforcement) is always disabled and kraken will happily
+binarize any image that is thrown at it.
+
+Available parameters are:
+
+===========     ====
+option          type
+===========     ==== 
+--threshold     FLOAT
+--zoom          FLOAT
+--escale        FLOAT
+--border        FLOAT
+--perc          INTEGER RANGE
+--range         INTEGER
+--low           INTEGER RANGE
+--high          INTEGER RANGE
+===========     ====
+
+Page Segmentation and Script Detection
+--------------------------------------
+
+The `segment` subcommand access two operations page segmentation into lines and
+script detection of those lines.
+
+Page segmentation is mostly parameterless, although a switch to change the
+color of column separators has been retained. The segmentation is written as a
+`JSON <http://json.org/>`_ file containing bounding boxes in reading order and
+the general text direction (horizontal, i.e. LTR or RTL text in top-to-bottom
+reading order or vertical-ltr/rtl for vertical lines read from left-to-right or
+right-to-left).
+
+The script detection splits extracted lines from the segmenter into strip
+sharing a particular script that can then be recognized by supplying
+appropriate models for each detected script to the `ocr` subcommand.
+
+Combined output from both consists of lists in the `boxes` field corresponding
+to a topographical line and containing one or more bounding boxes of a
+particular script. Identifiers are `ISO 15924
+<http://www.unicode.org/iso15924/iso15924-codes.html>`_ 4 character codes.
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+        $ kraken -i 14.tif lines.txt segment
+        $ cat lines.json
+	{
+	   "boxes" : [
+            [
+                ["Grek", [561, 216, 1626,309]]
+            ],
+            [
+                ["Latn", [2172, 197, 2424, 244]]
+            ],
+            [
+                ["Grek", [1678, 221, 2236, 320]],
+                ["Arab", [2241, 221, 2302, 320]]
+            ],
+            
+                ["Grek", [412, 318, 2215, 416]],
+                ["Latn", [2208, 318, 2424, 416]]
+            ],
+            ...
+   	   ],
+           "text_direction" : "horizontal-tb"
+	}
+
+Script detection is automatically enabled; by explicitly disabling script
+detection the `boxes` field will contain only a list of line bounding boxes:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+	      [546, 216, 1626, 309],
+	      [2169, 197, 2423, 244],
+	      [1676, 221, 2293, 320],
+              ...
+	      [503, 2641, 848, 2681]
+
+Available page segmentation parameters are:
+

+option                                          action

+-d, --text-direction                            Sets principal text direction. Valid values are `horizontal-lr`, `horizontal-rl`, `vertical-lr`, and `vertical-rl`.
+--scale FLOAT                                   Estimate of the average line height on the page
+-m, --maxcolseps                                Maximum number of columns in the input document. Set to `0` for uni-column layouts.
+-b, --black-colseps / -w, --white-colseps       Switch to black column separators.
+-r, --remove-hlines / -l, --hlines              Disables prefiltering of small horizontal lines. Improves segmenter output on some Arabic texts.

+=============================================== ======
+-s/-n                                           Enables/disables script detection
+-a, --allowed-script                            Whitelists specific scripts for detection output. Other detected script runs are merged with their adjacent scripts, after a heuristic pre-merging step.
+=============================================== ======
+
+Model Repository
+----------------
+
+There is a semi-curated `repository
+<https://github.com/mittagessen/kraken-models>`_ of freely licensed recognition
+models that can be accessed from the command line using a few subcommands. For
+evaluating a series of models it is also possible to just clone the repository
+using the normal git client. 
+
+The ``list`` subcommand retrieves a list of all models available and prints
+them including some additional information (identifier, type, and a short
+description):
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+        $ kraken list
+        Retrieving model list   ✓
+        default (pyrnn) - A converted version of en-default.pyrnn.gz
+        toy (clstm) - A toy model trained on 400 lines of the UW3 data set.
+        ...
+
+To access more detailed information the ``show`` subcommand may be used:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+        $ kraken show toy
+        name: toy.clstm
+
+        A toy model trained on 400 lines of the UW3 data set.
+
+        author: Benjamin Kiessling ([email protected])
+        http://kraken.re
+
+If a suitable model has been decided upon it can be retrieved using the ``get``
+subcommand:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+        $ kraken get toy
+        Retrieving model        ✓
+
+Models will be placed in $XDG_BASE_DIR and can be accessed using their name as
+shown by the ``show`` command, e.g.:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+        $ kraken -i ... ... ocr -m toy
+
+Additions and updates to existing models are always welcome! Just open a pull
+request or write an email.
+
+Recognition
+-----------
+
+Recognition requires a grey-scale or binarized image, a page segmentation for
+that image, and a model file. In particular there is no requirement to use the
+page segmentation algorithm contained in the ``segment`` subcommand or the
+binarization provided by kraken. 
+
+Multi-script recognition is possible by supplying a script-annotated
+segmentation and a mapping between scripts and models:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+        $ kraken -i ... ... ocr -m Grek:porson.clstm -m Latn:antiqua.clstm
+
+All polytonic Greek text portions will be recognized using the `porson.clstm`
+model while Latin text will be fed into the `antiqua.clstm` model. It is
+possible to define a fallback model that other text will be fed to:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+        $ kraken -i ... ... ocr -m ... -m ... -m default:porson.clstm
+
+It is also possible to disable recognition on a particular script by mapping to
+the special model keyword `ignore`. Ignored lines will still be serialized but
+will not contain any recognition results.
+
+The ``ocr`` subcommand is able to serialize the recognition results either as
+plain text (default), as `hOCR <http://hocr.info>`_, into `ALTO
+<http://www.loc.gov/standards/alto/>`_, or abbyyXML containing additional
+metadata such as bounding boxes and confidences:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+        $ kraken -i ... ... ocr -t # text output
+        $ kraken -i ... ... ocr -h # hOCR output
+        $ kraken -i ... ... ocr -a # ALTO output
+        $ kraken -i ... ... ocr -y # abbyyXML output
+
+hOCR output is slightly different from hOCR files produced by ocropus. Each
+``ocr_line`` span contains not only the bounding box of the line but also
+character boxes (``x_bboxes`` attribute) indicating the coordinates of each
+character. In each line alternating sequences of alphanumeric and
+non-alphanumeric (in the unicode sense) characters are put into ``ocrx_word``
+spans. Both have bounding boxes as attributes and the recognition confidence
+for each character in the ``x_conf`` attribute.
+
+Paragraph detection has been removed as it was deemed to be unduly dependent on
+certain typographic features which may not be valid for your input.

+
+Kraken provides routines which are usable by third party tools. In general
+you can expect function in the ``kraken`` package to remain stable. We will try

+GPU Acceleration
+================
+
+The latest version of kraken uses a new pytorch backend which enables GPU
+acceleration both for training and recognition. Apart from a compatible Nvidia
+GPU, CUDA and cuDNN have to be installed so pytorch can run computation on it.
