Abstract

The present invention discloses a Chinese character recognition method based on an optical character recognition technology. For an inputted gray scale text image, a cutting result is obtained by a hierarchical structure cutting method based on a connected region, then the binaryzation and denoising operations are carried out on the image by a region-growing algorithm based on the pixel distribution characteristics to obtain a to-be-recognized character, and then the to-be-recognized character is sent to a general single character recognizer to recognize to thereby obtain a candidate character set, and finally, a final recognition result is obtained by a similar character classification and recognition method. Compared with the prior art, the Chinese character recognition method based on the optical character recognition technology of the present invention enables the character recognition accuracy and efficiency to be improved effectively, enables the text information to be inputted to a computer at a high speed, solves the conflict between the low-speed information input and the high speed information processing, and enables the onerous keyboard recording work to be simplified.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a character recognition method, in particular to a Chinese character recognition method based on optical character recognition technology, belonging to the technical field of character recognition. Background technique

[0002] The significance of using optical character recognition technology is to extract the characters in the image into the computer and turn them into computer text, so that the storage capacity of image data can be reduced, and the recognized text can be reused and analyzed. Of course, it can also save keyboard input. manpower and time.

[0003] The concept of optical character recognition technology was first proposed by German scientists. However, IBM was the first to study printed Chinese character recognition. In 1996, they used template matching to recognize 1,000 printed Chinese characters. In the early 1970s, Japanese scholars began to study Chinese character recognition and did a lot of work. China...

Embodiment Construction

[0035] Below in conjunction with specific embodiment, further illustrate the present invention, should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, after having read the present invention, those skilled in the art will understand various equivalent forms of the present invention All modifications fall within the scope defined by the appended claims of the present application.

[0036] In order to improve the accuracy of text recognition, it is necessary to select a better image first: the target object processed by optical character recognition technology must pass through optical instruments, such as scanners, fax machines and other equipment, and transfer the image to the computer. Appropriate resolution, the choice of resolution cannot be too high or too low. The actual test experience shows that: generally speaking, the information provided by the scanner is enough, a...
