TSV - Processing Tools

Create .tsv files that can be viewed and edited with neat.

Installation:

Required python version is 3.11. Consider use of pyenv if that python version is not available on your system.

Activate virtual environment (virtualenv):

source venv/bin/activate

or (pyenv):

pyenv activate my-python-3.11-virtualenv

Update pip:

pip install -U pip

Install tsvtools:

pip install git+https://github.com/qurator-spk/page2tsv.git

PAGE-XML to TSV Transformation:

Create a TSV file from OCR in PAGE-XML format (with word segmentation):

page2tsv PAGE1.xml PAGE.tsv --image-url=http://link-to-corresponding-image-1

In order to create a TSV file for multiple PAGE XML files just perform successive calls of the tool using the same TSV file:

page2tsv PAGE1.xml PAGE.tsv --image-url=http://link-to-corresponding-image-1
page2tsv PAGE2.xml PAGE.tsv --image-url=http://link-to-corresponding-image-2
page2tsv PAGE3.xml PAGE.tsv --image-url=http://link-to-corresponding-image-3
page2tsv PAGE4.xml PAGE.tsv --image-url=http://link-to-corresponding-image-4
page2tsv PAGE5.xml PAGE.tsv --image-url=http://link-to-corresponding-image-5
...
...
...

For instance, for the file example.xml:

page2tsv example.xml example.tsv --image-url=http://content.staatsbibliothek-berlin.de/zefys/SNP27646518-18800101-0-3-0-0/left,top,width,height/full/0/default.jpg

Processing of already existing TSV files:

Create a URL-annotated TSV file from an existing TSV file:

annotate-tsv enp_DE.tsv enp_DE-annotated.tsv

Command-line interface:

page2tsv --help
Usage: page2tsv [OPTIONS] PAGE_XML_FILE TSV_OUT_FILE

  Converts a page-XML file into a TSV file that can be edited with neat.
  Optionally the tool also accepts NER and Entitiy Linking API-Endpoints as
  parameters and performs NER and EL and the document if these are provided.

  PAGE_XML_FILE: The source page-XML file. TSV_OUT_FILE: Resulting TSV file.

                             default: NERD.
  --image-url TEXT           An image retrieval link that enables neat to show
                             the scan images corresponding to the text tokens.
