Re: [AI] Report in everybody's interest: The end of the handshake: saying hello during the coronavirus outbreak
Serious stuff! Very relevant for the present times. -Original Message- From: AccessIndia [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of avinash shahi Sent: Tuesday, March 3, 2020 10:09 AM To: accessindia Subject: [AI] Report in everybody's interest: The end of the handshake: saying hello during the coronavirus outbreak Say no to a handshake, give up high fives, refuse kisses on the cheek and definitely avoid hugging. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/03/the-end-of-the-handshake-saying-hello-during-the-coronavirus-outbreak All around the world people are changing their daily habits at work and at home to reduce the risk of contracting the coronavirus and prevent it from spreading. Here are some of the ways that habits are changing around the world. China In Beijing, the capital of the country where the outbreak began, red billboards tell people not to shake hands but to join their own hands together in a sign of greeting. Loudspeakers tell people to make the traditional gong shou gesture (a fist in the opposite palm) to say hello. France Newspapers have been filled with advice over how to replace handshaking – a daily formality for the French at work and kissing on the cheek, a regular greeting habit in France even between people who have only just met. Lifestyle expert Philippe Lichtfus, who has been widely cited in the media, insists that handshakes are a relatively recent development in human history that began in the Middle Ages. He says simply looking into a person’s eyes can suffice as a greeting. Australia Brad Hazzard, the New South Wales health minister, advised people not to shake hands and instead give each other a pat on the back. “I won’t say don’t kiss” he said, “but you could be exercising a degree of care and caution with whom you choose to kiss.” Brazil The Brazilian health ministry has recommended that citizens not share the metal straws traditionally used to consume the caffeine-rich South American drink mate, also known as chimarrão. And a kiss – even if it is not on the mouth – is totally advised against. Germany In a sign of the times, Germany’s interior minister Horst Seehofer rebuffed Chancellor Angela Merkel’s attempt to shake hands with him on Monday, smiling and keeping both his hands to himself. They both laughed and Merkel threw her hand up in the air before taking a seat. Spain The outbreak could also hit one of Spain’s most cherished traditions – the kissing of sculptures of the Virgin Mary in the week leading up to Easter. With just a month to go before the week starts, the ritual could be banned. “It is one of the measures that is on the table,” said national health official Fernando Simon. During the holy week, the faithful queue up to kiss the hands or feet of sculptures of Mary and the saints, seeking their protection. Romania Romania’s Martisor festival marks the beginning of spring when talismanic strings and flowers are handed out, often from men to women. But the government has passed on a message to people urging them to hand over the flowers and talismans without the accompanying kiss. “Let’s give the flowers but not the kiss,” said Nelu Tataru, state secretary at the health ministry. Poland In Poland, one of Europe’s most Catholic countries, the faithful are allowed to take “spiritual communion” instead of consuming the communal bread – or the host can be taken in the hands rather than the mouth. The faithful are also asked not to dip their hands in the holy water when going in and out of the church and instead make the sign of the cross. Iran In Iran, where 66 have been killed by the coronavirus, a video has gone viral showing three friends meeting, hands in their pockets and two of whom are wearing masks, tapping their feet against each other as a greeting. A similar video in Lebanon shows singer Ragheb Alama and comedian Michel Abou Sleiman tapping their feet against each other while making kissing noises with their mouths. UAE The United Arab Emirates, as well as Qatar, are advising citizens to stop the traditional “nose to nose” greeting. The UAE also said that people shouldn’t shake hands anymore or kiss. Greet each other “by waving only”, it said.

Re: [AI] Suggestions needed on OCR apps for Android
Dear Anirudh, Try using the ABBYY FineReader. It is an optical character recognition application developed by ABBYY. The program allows the conversion of image documents into editable electronic formats. In particular, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, Rich Text Format, HTML, PDF/A, searchable PDF, CSV and txt files. I have not used it personally but have found people recommending it.

[AI] Janni Lehrer-Stein writes in the NyTimes: What It’s Like to Use Facebook When You’re Blind
For years, scrolling through my newsfeed was frustrating and confusing. Then facial recognition came along. Imagine scrolling through Facebook with all the images blacked out. You can read your friends’ jokes and their commentary on the links they share. But vacation photos? Visual memes? A video of an old school friend’s anniversary party? All of these visuals, with their rich details and subtexts, are concealed from view. Looking for more business news? We can help. Yes For years, that was essentially my experience on Facebook, and it remains that way for me on other social media platforms and the internet at large. You see, I am blind. I rely on a screen reader to use my computer — it reads the words in text out loud. Since a screen reader recognizes only words and numbers, photographs, diagrams and other images are often inaccessible. Three years ago, my life on Facebook transformed. Now my screen reader tells me that I am “looking” at a photograph of my sister, standing on a beach in Hawaii, enjoying a colorful sunset, or that my children are together at their favorite cafe, sharing brunch and smiling at each other. This change occurred thanks to a technology that usually gets negative attention in the press: facial recognition. I wanted to explore Facebook from its earliest days, just like everyone else. But without accessibility tools, I could understand very little of the content posted by other users. I was frustrated. Fortunately, I knew Elliot Schrage, then Facebook’s vice president of communications and public policy, because our sons attended the same school. Elliot agreed to meet with me and I told him all about what it’s like to be a blind Facebook user and how the platform could do a better job of including people with disabilities. He assured me that Facebook was on it. And it was. In July of 2011, Facebook established an accessibility team. Nonetheless, access during those first years remained very limited. I could hear only that my newsfeed contained “photos.” There was no way for me to understand what the pictures were about. My time on Facebook was both enticing and frustrating. I wanted to understand and appreciate everything that my Facebook friends shared, but I couldn’t. In 2016 Facebook introduced “automatic alt text” technology to help identify objects. This feature uses artificial intelligence to sense standard outlines of common objects, like people, dogs and trees, and then speaks their generic label. Instead of hearing only “photo” when my cursor scrolled down my newsfeed, I could then understand that the photo contained a picture of something like “two people, indoors” or “trees and flowers with blue sky.” This kind of description allowed me to guess what the picture might be about, but still largely excluded me from understanding its content and context. Alt text created even more questions for me. Who were those people in the picture? What kind of trees, what color flowers? While it was a step in the right direction, alt text would never describe the images flooding my newsfeed every day sufficiently to let me participate fully in Facebook. Then, a breakthrough: Facebook introduced facial recognition for photos in January 2017. This feature identifies many of the subjects in photographs while allowing users to opt in or out for privacy reasons. A scroll through my Facebook newsfeed today identifies by name most of the people contained in the photographs. Rather than guessing who the subject of a picture is, I hear the names of my loved ones. While sighted users may take these details for granted, this technology allows me to understand both context and content, the nuances of smiling faces and the brilliance of colorful sunsets, even though I cannot actually view them. Without facial recognition technology, I would never know that my daughter posted candid pictures from her wedding, or that my niece proudly displayed photos of her son’s first steps. I can now enjoy these details that make up the fabric of our lives and participate in a meaningful way. Unfortunately, Facebook is the only major social media platform to embrace facial recognition for accessibility purposes. Other social media sites use automatic alt text technology. Instagram is one of many sites that even let users write and post their own “alt text” descriptions. But it’s not enough: Every site on the internet should use facial recognition. This would allow blind and low-vision users full entry to everything that the web has to offer. If Facebook can do it, so can other sites — especially Instagram, which is owned by Facebook. The internet relies on photographs and images for everything from social interaction to commerce. The internet must be fully accessible to everyone. That said, I do not approve of uncontrolled deployment of facial recognition technology. I understand and support communities pushing to limit the use of facial recognition by government, including immigration and law
