[comp.lang.c] OCR book, software & info. request

marwk@levels.sait.edu.au (02/19/91)

Please inform me (and others) of information on the problem and methods
of solution to the problem of OCR recognition and processing.

The information is acceptable in the form of a book, code, or papers in
the literature that we can refer to.

At the moment all I have are 2 books on ROBOTICS which describe the elements
of vision systems:  edge linking, boundary detection, thresholding,
polygonal approximations, intensity histograms, Fourier descriptors,
moment invariants, etc., but not enough to really to get going.

I have just been told that neural nets are used in this area.

I will post useful information to the net.

Thank you very much.

Ray
