Abstract We present an efficient and effective approach to train OCR engines using the Aletheia document analysis system. All components required for training are seamlessly integrated into Aletheia: training data preparation, the OCR engine’s training processes themselves, text recognition, and quantitative evaluation of the trained engine. Such a comprehensive training and evaluation system, guided through a GUI, allows for iterative incremental training to achieve best results. The widely used Tesseract OCR engine is used as a case study to demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed approach. Experimental results are presented validating the training approach with two different historical datasets, representative of recent significant digitisation projects. The impact of different training strategies and training data requirements is presented in detail.

This paper describes an implementation of a Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) process for extracting the causes of iterations in Engineering Change Orders (ECOs). A data set of approximately 53,000 historical Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) was used for this purpose. Initially, the impact of iterations in ECO lead time and uncertainty is assessed. Subsequently, a semi-automatic text-mining process is employed to classify the causes of iterations. As a result, cost and technical categories of causes were identified as the main reasons for the occurrence of iterations. The study concludes that applying KDD in historic ECO data can help in identifying the causes of iterations of ECO which subsequently can provide a framework for companies to reduce these iterations. In addition, the case represents an example of benefits that can be achieved with the application of KDD in engineering change management.
