OCR on hosting
A task for the community: local OCR of PDF scans (RU/KK) instead of Gemini What is it about In our service (verification of packages of documents for the state text is extracted from the downloaded PDF files for further analysis. Most files have a text layer and are parsed locally. But some of them come in scans without a text layer — they are now recognized by the cloud-based Google Gemini 2.5 Flash. We want to get away from the cloud and do it locally, on our hosting. What needs to be done A module that accepts a PDF scan and returns the extracted text (plain text, UTF-8), verbatim and in the correct reading order. It should work offline, without external APIs. Important caveat on the type of documents This is not the recognition of passports, identification cards, complex forms or manuscripts. Scans are ordinary printed text documents: charters, certificates, contracts, business plans, letters. That is: mostly solid printed text, 1 column; machine font (not a manuscript); there may be simple tables, a stamp/signature at the bottom — but this is not the main content. This greatly simplifies the task: you don't need the "intelligence" of the multimodal LLM level for complex layout — you need reliable OCR of printed RU/KK text. Specificity Languages: Russian + Kazakh (ә ғ қ ң ө))))), sometimes in the same document. Quality: scans of different quality (distortion, noise, DPI 150-300). Critical: numbers, amounts, BIN/IIN (12 digits), dates — an error in a digit is unacceptable. Input: PDF up to 15 MB, 1-30 pages. Output: UTF-8 text, top—to-bottom / left-to-right order; tables - line by line. Integration: A PHP module or a local CLI/HTTP service called from PHP (CodeIgniter 4 / PHP 8.2 stack). Allowed stack Everything that is hosted: Tesseract 5 (rus + kaz LSTM), PaddleOCR / EasyOCR, docTR; rasterization of PDF→image (pdftoppm / Ghostscript); preprocessing (OpenCV / ImageMagick: deskew, denoise, binarize). Combinations are welcome. Acceptance criteria Benchmark: we will provide a set of ~150-200 real impersonal PDFs (RU/KK) with a reference text. Metrics: CER / WER vs. benchmark; Field-accuracy for critical fields (BIN, amounts, dates). The goal: accuracy is no worse than Gemini 2.5 Flash on the same set (we will publish its results as a baseline). Performance: less than N seconds per document (to specify the hardware), completely local. The format of the submission Repository with code + README (installation, dependencies, launch). A benchmark run script that outputs CER/WER and field-accuracy. A brief description of the pipeline. Deadline: 01.10.26

Development of an intelligent planning system for the production of semi-finished products for a network of dark kitchens
The system should answer one question daily (plus intraday adjustments): how much of each semi-finished product should be produced in the workshop and how much should be shipped to each kitchen on each flight. Demand forecast is at the level of "kitchen × dish × slot 30-60 min", the horizon is up to 3 days. Factors: history, weekly and intraday seasonality, holidays and weather, prices, promos, marketing campaigns, cannibalization between dishes, menu changes. The restoration of suppressed demand is the correction of the history for periods of stop lists and unavailability. Without this, the model learns from the consequences of its own mistakes. Technical mapping is the translation of the forecast of dishes into the need for PF: the norms of the bookmark, the output after processing, the total PF included in several dishes. Calculation of a batch with a clear economic balance: the price of the deficit (lost margin + stop list effect on the user) versus the price of the surplus (cost x probability of not selling by the end of the term). The level of service is differentiated: higher for locomotive dishes, lower for the tail of the assortment. Restrictions: leftovers in the kitchen and on the way by batch (FEFO), shelf life, flight schedule and capacity, packing multiplicity, line capacity and production window of the workshop, kitchen refrigerating capacities. System output: shift assignment to the shop; invoice for the kitchen for each flight; list of PF and dishes at risk (limit sales / launch promo for the deductible); explanation of the figure ("+18 servings to the average: Friday + promo for combo").
