How do you build AI systems that remain reliable under real-world conditions?

Next week at #SwissText2026, Mike Mannion and Olmo Barberis will explore this question from two different angles:

🎤 Probabilistic testing for stochastic #NLP systems with #PUnit (Mike)

🎤 Modern #OCR in resource-constrained environments (Olmo)

Mike and Olmo will be happy to discuss your challenges and use cases.

Как и зачем мы сделали собственный OCR-бенчмарк

Однажды нам понадобилось выбрать OCR-модель для RAG-пайплайна. Казалось бы, задача простая: смотришь на лидерборды, берешь лучшую, PROFIT. Но быстро выяснилось, что, во-первых, то, что прекрасно срабатывает на каких-нибудь английских юридических документах, может не потянуть такие штуки как научные формулы, паспортные данные и таблицы на русском языке. А во-вторых, даже если крутой по всем параметрам бенчмарк для оценки качества распознавания говорит, «всё прочитали правильно, я проверил», точность ответов пользователю, который совершает запрос к чат-боту с RAG под капотом, может страдать. Почему так происходит, зачем мы потратили время на сборку собственного OCR-бенчмарка и пожалели ли мы об этом, рассказываю дальше.

Finally upgraded my main #Linux machine to #Kubuntu 26.04 (Resolute Raccoon 🦝) running Plasma 6.6 and nothing looks broken so far. Tried the new #OCR feature in Spectacle and it works wonderfully. Can’t wait until this feature also lands in Gwenview.

Papra is an open-source, self-hosted document management platform focused on long-term document storage and organization.

It includes OCR-powered search, tagging, email ingestion, sharing, and document archiving, all under your control.

Still under active development, but an interesting privacy-friendly alternative to traditional document archive tools.

#KDE 's #Spectacle has #OCR support since Version 6.6 and it never worked for me even with #tesseract installed. Today I took the time and looked into it. It seems like the problem lies in the naming of the shared library files of tesseract. On Debian Sid at least it was called tesseract.so.5 and creating a symbolic link at /usr/lib/tesseract to that worked! Tried a few other things, but it seems this is the only thing working reliably for me.
