Presenting our extended abstract at the 17th MSVSCC 2024 At the 17th Annual Modeling, Simulation, and Visualization Student Capstone Conference 2024 (MSVSCC), I presented our extended abstract, “ AI-Driven App for Accessibility in Education: Converting Scanned Documents to Readable Text for Students with Low Vision. ” With its intuitively designed user interface, this app is crafted to convert scanned documents into a readable format that seamlessly integrates with users’ existing accessibility tools. The app’s workflow is powered by Nougat (Neural Optical Understanding for Academic Documents), an advanced Optical Character Recognition (OCR) model that converts scientific documents into Markdown. The repository with the code can be found here: https://github.com/bllin001/storymodelers-ocr-documents-art-app .
