“Determination of Optimal Features Database for OCR of Printed Telugu

Text “ by C.Vasantha Lakshm, Sarika Singh and C.Patvardhan
OCR (Optical Character Recognition) systems are being developed due
to their numerous applications even for Indian scripts like Telugu which
are complicated due to the usage of a large number of symbols.
Experimental results on text document images with multiple fonts and
sizes show that the strategy for database design for OCR of printed
Telugu text proposed in this paper achieves both the objectives. This is
the first reported approach for such a database design for Telugu OCR

Implementation of an Optical Character Reader (OCR) for Bengali

Language by Muhammed Tawfiq Chowdhury, Md. Saiful Islam ad al.
In this research, ‘Solaimanlipi’ font and 200 input files are used to test the
accuracy of OCR. It is found that for clean image files, the accuracy of
the software is as high as 97.56%. It is to be noted that accuracy is
measured as the percentage of correct characters and words.
 INTRODUCTION

India is a country of having multi written languages and there is

a need in digitization of books and documents and conversion
of this text of these books, image text and documents into
editable text.
These project will be converting text image into editable text for
English, Konkani and Marathi language using neural network.
Conversion will be done by using matlab.
The main aim is to identify the character from image, These
can be achieved by pre-processing.
Then these text is segmented to separate out the characters
from each other. After Segmentation, letters are extracted and
resized and fed to neural network which will classify the
character to give us the ascii text. These text is then converted
into editable text .
OCR Accuracy Prediction Method Based on Blur Estimation by
Van-Cuong Kieu, Florence Cloppet, and Nicole Vincent
In this paper, they proposed an OCR accuracy prediction method
based on a local blur estimation since blur is one of the important
factors that mostly damage OCR accuracy. The proposed method
is evaluated on a published database and on an industrial one.
The correlation with OCR accuracy is also given to compare with
the state-of-the-art methods.

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) System for Roman Script &

English Language using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) Classifier
by Honey Mehta ,Sanjay Singla and Aarti Mahajan
They proposed a new approach of in case of character recognition
is the different styles and fonts in which the text is written by using
the concept of Artificial Neural Network and Nearest Neighbour
approach for character recognition from scanned images. Three
layers are used for classification purpose. First is the input layer
consist the input given by the segmented characters, then hidden
layer consist the neurons trained by the training network and the
output layer consist output neurons to generate Unicode.
