omniparse 0.4.1

//! Character bigram language model for post-recognition re-ranking.
//!
//! Given a sequence of per-glyph top-k candidates, pick each character to
//! jointly maximize `α · recognition_score + β · bigram_log_prob(prev, cur)`.
//! The bigram table is a bundled English character-frequency model derived
//! from common-word statistics — small, no external data required.
//!
//! Usage:
//!
//! ```no_run
//! # #[cfg(feature = "ocr")]
//! # fn go() -> Result<(), omniparse::Error> {
//! use omniparse::ocr::bigram::BigramRanker;
//! use omniparse::ocr::OcrEngine;
//! # let engine = OcrEngine::new();
//! # let img: image::DynamicImage = image::DynamicImage::new_luma8(1, 1);
//! let out = engine.recognize(img)?;
//! let ranker = BigramRanker::english();
//! let reranked = ranker.rerank_line(&out.lines);
//! println!("{}", reranked);
//! # Ok(()) }
//! ```
