OCR quality estimate for Compact Memory pages
An estimate of the OCR quality of every page of Compact Memory, and the mean per journal.
Per page (jl:ocrKnownWordShare): the share of its words (letters only, at least two characters, lowercased) that
occur at least 10 times in every 20th page of the corpus. Per journal (jl:meanOcrKnownWordShare): the mean over its
pages. An estimate, not a measurement: Hebrew, Yiddish and Russian pages score lower partly because the word list is
dominated by German. The statements are about the pages and journals of compact-memory; the texts come from the
full text of the FID portal’s Compact Memory search.
