Abstract

OCR is used to recognize written or optical generated text by the computer. Machine learning and artificial intelligence are relying frequently on such automation process with high accuracy. This paper present setting of the threshold value is once for whole bounding box algorithm rather than the random threshold value. Region properties of the image measure in the second and final module of our article. In the proposed approach, the final extraction of optical character is done by removing all the feature vectors having pixels less than 30. This process will subsequently increase the accuracy of recognition and visual effects as well. Old and new data sets are implemented by the proposed algorithm. After that, a comparative analysis was done for both outputs of the proposed algorithm. Proposed algorithm extracts different optical characters at the same time so as to reduce time complexity as well.
