Optical Character Recognition (OCR)

Resource Overview

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) - A main MATLAB program with multiple callback functions. Executing the main program enables image target object detection, extraction, and character recognition using a letter library function to display corresponding characters.

Detailed Documentation

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a technology that converts text within images into editable and searchable text through optical techniques. The main OCR program consists of multiple callback functions that, when executed, enable target object detection and extraction from images. The system utilizes a letter library function to match and display corresponding characters. This technology is widely applied in various fields such as document scanning, automated data entry, and image processing. The implementation typically involves image preprocessing algorithms for enhancement, segmentation techniques for character isolation, and pattern recognition methods for character classification using predefined template matching or machine learning approaches.
