0066 /**
0067  * ** General ideas of the Hebrew charset recognition **
0068  *
0069  * Four main charsets exist in Hebrew:
0070  * "ISO-8859-8" - Visual Hebrew
0071  * "windows-1255" - Logical Hebrew
0072  * "ISO-8859-8-I" - Logical Hebrew
0073  * "x-mac-hebrew" - ?? Logical Hebrew ??
0074  *
0075  * Both "ISO" charsets use a completely identical set of code points, whereas
0076  * "windows-1255" and "x-mac-hebrew" are two different proper supersets of
0077  * these code points. windows-1255 defines additional characters in the range
0078  * 0x80-0x9F as some misc punctuation marks as well as some Hebrew-specific
0079  * diacritics and additional 'Yiddish' ligature letters in the range 0xc0-0xd6.
0080  * x-mac-hebrew defines similar additional code points but with a different
0081  * mapping.
0082  *
0083  * As far as an average Hebrew text with no diacritics is concerned, all four
0084  * charsets are identical with respect to code points. Meaning that for the
0085  * main Hebrew alphabet, all four map the same values to all 27 Hebrew letters
0086  * (including final letters).
0087  *
0088  * The dominant difference between these charsets is their directionality.
0089  * "Visual" directionality means that the text is ordered as if the renderer is
0090  * not aware of a BIDI rendering algorithm. The renderer sees the text and
0091  * draws it from left to right. The text itself when ordered naturally is read
0092  * backwards. A buffer of Visual Hebrew generally looks like so:
0093  * "[last word of first line spelled backwards] [whole line ordered backwards
0094  * and spelled backwards] [first word of first line spelled backwards]
0095  * [end of line] [last word of second line] ... etc' "
0096  * adding punctuation marks, numbers and English text to visual text is
0097  * naturally also "visual" and from left to right.
0098  *
0099  * "Logical" directionality means the text is ordered "naturally" according to
0100  * the order it is read. It is the responsibility of the renderer to display
0101  * the text from right to left. A BIDI algorithm is used to place general
0102  * punctuation marks, numbers and English text in the text.
0103  *
0104  * Texts in x-mac-hebrew are almost impossible to find on the Internet. From
0105  * what little evidence I could find, it seems that its general directionality
0106  * is Logical.
0107  *
0108  * To sum up all of the above, the Hebrew probing mechanism knows about two
0109  * charsets:
0110  * Visual Hebrew - "ISO-8859-8" - backwards text - Words and sentences are
0111  *    backwards while line order is natural. For charset recognition purposes
0112  *    the line order is unimportant (In fact, for this implementation, even
0113  *    word order is unimportant).
0114  * Logical Hebrew - "windows-1255" - normal, naturally ordered text.
0115  *
0116  * "ISO-8859-8-I" is a subset of windows-1255 and doesn't need to be
0117  *    specifically identified.
0118  * "x-mac-hebrew" is also identified as windows-1255. A text in x-mac-hebrew
0119  *    that contain special punctuation marks or diacritics is displayed with
0120  *    some unconverted characters showing as question marks. This problem might
0121  *    be corrected using another model prober for x-mac-hebrew. Due to the fact
0122  *    that x-mac-hebrew texts are so rare, writing another model prober isn't
0123  *    worth the effort and performance hit.
0124  *
0125  * *** The Prober ***
0126  *
0127  * The prober is divided between two nsSBCharSetProbers and an nsHebrewProber,
0128  * all of which are managed, created, fed data, inquired and deleted by the
0129  * nsSBCSGroupProber. The two nsSBCharSetProbers identify that the text is in
0130  * fact some kind of Hebrew, Logical or Visual. The final decision about which
0131  * one is it is made by the nsHebrewProber by combining final-letter scores
0132  * with the scores of the two nsSBCharSetProbers to produce a final answer.
0133  *
0134  * The nsSBCSGroupProber is responsible for stripping the original text of HTML
0135  * tags, English characters, numbers, low-ASCII punctuation characters, spaces
0136  * and new lines. It reduces any sequence of such characters to a single space.
0137  * The buffer fed to each prober in the SBCS group prober is pure text in
0138  * high-ASCII.
0139  * The two nsSBCharSetProbers (model probers) share the same language model:
0140  * Win1255Model.
0141  * The first nsSBCharSetProber uses the model normally as any other
0142  * nsSBCharSetProber does, to recognize windows-1255, upon which this model was
0143  * built. The second nsSBCharSetProber is told to make the pair-of-letter
0144  * lookup in the language model backwards. This in practice exactly simulates
0145  * a visual Hebrew model using the windows-1255 logical Hebrew model.
0146  *
0147  * The nsHebrewProber is not using any language model. All it does is look for
0148  * final-letter evidence suggesting the text is either logical Hebrew or visual
0149  * Hebrew. Disjointed from the model probers, the results of the nsHebrewProber
0150  * alone are meaningless. nsHebrewProber always returns 0.00 as confidence
0151  * since it never identifies a charset by itself. Instead, the pointer to the
0152  * nsHebrewProber is passed to the model probers as a helper "Name Prober".
0153  * When the Group prober receives a positive identification from any prober,
0154  * it asks for the name of the charset identified. If the prober queried is a
0155  * Hebrew model prober, the model prober forwards the call to the
0156  * nsHebrewProber to make the final decision. In the nsHebrewProber, the
0157  * decision is made according to the final-letters scores maintained and Both
0158  * model probers scores. The answer is returned in the form of the name of the
0159  * charset identified, either "windows-1255" or "ISO-8859-8".
