Tesseract takes a lang variable that you can expand to include different languages if they're installed. I've used the UB Mannheim (https://github.com/UB-Mannheim/tesseract/wiki) installation which includes a ton of languages supported.

To get better and more accurate results, the best thing to do is to process the image before handing it to Tesseract. Set a white/black threshold so that you have black text on white background with no shading. I'm not sure how to do this in Node, but I've done it with Python's OpenCV library.

If that font doesn't get you decent results with the out of the box, then you'll want to train your own, yes. This blog post walks through the process in great detail: https://towardsdatascience.com/simple-ocr-with-tesseract-a4341e4564b6. It revolves around using the jTessBoxEditor to hand-label the objects detected in the images you're using.

Edit: In brief, the process to train your own:

1. Install jTessBoxEditor (https://sourceforge.net/projects/vietocr/files/jTessBoxEditor/). Requires Java Runtime installed as well.
2. Collect your training images. They want to be .tiffs. I found I got fairly accurate results with not a whole lot of images that had a good sample of all the characters I wanted to detect. Maybe 30/40 images. It's tedious, so you don't want to do TOO many, but need enough in order to get a good sampling.
3. Use jTessBoxEditor to merge all the images into a single .tiff
4. Create a training label file (.box)j. This is done with Tesseract itself. tesseract your_language.font.exp0.tif your_language.font.exp0 makebox
5. Now you can open the box file in jTessBoxEditor and you'll see how/where it detected the characters. Bounding boxes and what character it saw. The tedious part: Hand fix all the bounding boxes and characters to accurately represent what is in the images. Not joking, it's tedious. Slap some tv episodes up and just churn through it.
6. Train the tesseract model itself

• save a file: font_properties who's content is font 0 0 0 0 0
• run the following commands:

tesseract num.font.exp0.tif font_name.font.exp0 nobatch box.train

unicharset_extractor font_name.font.exp0.box

shapeclustering -F font_properties -U unicharset -O font_name.unicharset font_name.font.exp0.tr

mftraining -F font_properties -U unicharset -O font_name.unicharset font_name.font.exp0.tr

cntraining font_name.font.exp0.tr

You should, in there close to the end see some output that looks like this:

Master shape_table:Number of shapes = 10 max unichars = 1 number with multiple unichars = 0

That number of shapes should roughly be the number of characters present in all the image files you've provided.

If it went well, you should have 4 files created: inttemp normproto pffmtable shapetable. Rename them all with the prefix of your_language from before. So e.g. your_language.inttemp etc.

Then run:

combine_tessdata your_language

The file: your_language.traineddata is the model. Copy that into your Tesseract's data folder. On Windows, it'll be like: C:\Program Files x86\tesseract\4.0\tessdata and on Linux it's probably something like /usr/shared/tesseract/4.0/tessdata.

Then when you run Tesseract, you'll pass the lang=your_language. I found best results when I still passed an existing language as well, so like for my stuff it was still English I was grabbing, just funny fonts. So I still wanted the English as well, so I'd pass: lang=your_language+eng.

Well, it's indeed not possible that declarative way since we don't have hook for injecting to the reactive type in the middle on that level.

Try to look into a TransactionalOperator and its usage from the Java DSL's fluxTransform():

You could use the split() command in Python to break up your sting into a list. You can then iterate over the elements inside the list. You could do this al follows:

Use sum and count with list comprehension

Use nested View. You can try here: https://snack.expo.io/@vasylnahuliak/stackoverflow-67989491

You've to dispatch that actions inside mounted hook :

You can use sites like https://regexr.com/ to try out regex expressions with explanations.

There is no simple 'but not' in regex; i.e. you can't do non-word chars (\W) that are not dollar sign unless you get into negative look-ahead/behinds which are a bit complicated to reason about. If you do want to go this route, /(?!\$)\W/ begins with the negative lookahead that says "not a dollar sign (?!\$)", followed by "not a word char (\W)".

Instead, you can use explicitly split on spaces / /, or whatever char sets if there are multiple non-word chars you want to split on. E.g. /[ _-]/ will split on spaces, underscore, or dashes.

If you need the expected result then you should group by with having clause like below.

Depending on whether it is sufficient to identify repeated words, or also their repeat frequencies, you might want to modify the function, but here is one approach using the dplyr::lead function:
