A Novel Approach for Character Recognition

Abstract

Abstract — “Optical Character Recognition”, abbreviated as OCR has become a very important aspect of life in today’s world especially in Computer vision applications, and also in the field of Robotics. Our basic objective is to develop an efficient approach which can recognize the input printed-text with a high level of accuracy so that its output can be utilized in our final goal which is an English-Text to multilingual Translator. In this paper the methodology adopted to implement OCR is mainly explained in detail along with emphasizing the necessity and advantages over the present technique. In this paper, an efficient approach for optical Character recognition of printed text has been analyzed. The problems associated with Character Recognition are also mentioned. A Graphical User Interface (GUI), in this paper represented for that purpose. Keywords — Optical Character Recognition, Computer-Vision, Robotics, Graphical User Interface.
