Method and system for recognizing a candidate character in a captured image
TLDR
In this article, a system and method of recognizing characters in a captured image, including selecting a portion of the image encompassing a string of characters in the captured image to be recognized.Abstract:
A system and method of recognizing characters in a captured image, includes selecting a portion of the image encompassing a string of characters in the captured image to be recognized. The selected portion is examined to identify segments that potentially include the characters of the string. During the examining multiple tests on pixels in the selected portion are performed. The identified segments are then examined to recognize the string of characters.read more

A hybrid feature-based and template matching optical character recognition system
TL;DR: In this paper, a feature-based character recognition and confidence level for an unknown symbol were determined by matching the unknown character with a reference template corresponding to the feature based identification, and then the confidence level was confirmed by matching with a second set of templates having thicker character strokes.
Patent
Combined magnetic optical character reader
TL;DR: In this article, a system and method for character recognition in which each of a plurality of characters is recognized both magnetically and optically is presented, where the magnetic and topical readers provide signals indicative of different characters while attempting to read the same character, depending on the parameters of the system an identification signal corresponding to one or the other recognition signals, or a reject signal is generated.
Patent
Bar-Code/MICR/OCR merge
TL;DR: In this article, a redundant character recognition system which minimizes both read failures and ambiguities caused by conflicting read signals by merging character recognition signals from MICR, OCR and Bar-Code read heads is presented.
