Nowadays optical character recognition has gained lot of attention due to its enormous usage in the modern handheld devices like smart phones. Recognizing patterns are very well done by the human beings but for computers it’s a difficult task. Hence patterns or rules need to be deduced from various samples. Usually OCR systems include steps like scanning the image or video frame, text localization, segmentation of characters, Feature Extraction, classification, Recognition.
