Abstract

This is the software which will recognize the characters from online or offline document (in image format) and use it as individual user profile. Here, the software OCR will recognize Devnagri characters. OCR is an Optical character recognition and is the mechanical or electronic translation of images of handwritten or typewritten text (usually captured by a scanner) into machine-editable text. OCR is a field of research in pattern recognition, Artificial Neural Networks and Kohonen Network.
