This paper presents a typographical analyses and classes. Typographical analysis is an indispensable tool for machine-printed character recognition in English. This analysis is a preliminary step for character segmentation in OCR(Optical Character Recognition). This paper is divided into two parts. In the first part, word typographical classes from words are defined by the word typographical analysis. In the second part, character typographical classes from connected components are defined by the character typographical analysis. The character typographical classes are used in the character segmentation.

We have implemented a personal prescription management system which enables resource-limited mobile device to utilize the optical character recognition technique. The system enables us to automatically detect and recognize the text in the personal prescription by using a optical character recognition technique. We improved the recognition rate over a pre-processing in order to improve the character recognition rate of the original method. The examples such as a personal prescription management service, alarm service, and drug information service with mobile devices have been demonstrated by using the our system.

Optical library system consists of disc magazines, cabinets, transfer robot and drive. Transfer robot delivers desired disc or magazine in cabinet to drive which reads data of disc. Conventional archive system stores discs in a line and transfer robot moves in one dimension. However, to store more discs, new optical archive system, optical library system, is developed which stores discs in two dimension like bookcase. Transfer robot should know the position and stored data of desired magazine to get correct data. In this paper, addressing algorithm using optical character recognition is proposed. Proposed algorithm is evaluated by experiments with implemented system.

Recently, with the development of ICT technology such as cloud and mobile, image utilization through social networks is increasing rapidly. These images contain personal information, and personal information leakage accidents may occur. As a result, studies are underway to recognize and mask personal information in images. However, optical character recognition, which recognizes personal information in images, varies greatly depending on brightness, contrast, and distortion, and Korean recognition is insufficient. Therefore, in this paper, we design and implement a personal information identification and masking system based on image recognition through deep learning application using CNN algorithm based on optical character recognition method. Also, the proposed system and optical character recognition compares and evaluates the recognition rate of personal information on the same image and measures the face recognition rate of the proposed system. Test results show that the recognition rate of personal information in the proposed system is 32.7% higher than that of optical character recognition and the face recognition rate is 86.6%.

In this paper, we propose Simple Frame Marker(SFMarker) to support recognition of characters and images included in a marker in augmented reality. If characters are inserted inside of marker and are recognised using Optical Character Recognition(OCR), it doesn't need marker learning process before an execution. It also reduces visual disturbance compared to 2D barcode marker due to familarity of characters. Therefore, proposed SFMarker distinguishes Square SFMarker that embeds images from Rectangle SFMarker with characters according to ratio of marker and applies different recognition algorithms. Also, in order to reduce preprocessing of character recognition, SFMarker inserts direction information in border of marker and extracts it to execute character recognition fast and correctly. Finally, since the character recognition for every frame slows down tracking speed, we increase the speed of recognition process using the result of character recognition in previous frame when frame difference is low.

LPR(License plate recognition) is a kind of the most popular surveillance technology based on accompanied by a video and video within the optical character recognition. LPR need a many process. One is a localization of car license plates, license plate of size, space, contrast, normalized to adjust the brightness, another is character division for recognize the character optical character recognition to win the individual characters, character recognition, the other is phrase analysis of the shape, size, position by year, the procedure for the analysis by comparing the database of license plate having a difference by region. In this paper, describing the results of performance of license plate recognition S/W, which was implemented using EmguCV, find the location, using the tesseract OCR, which are well known to an optical character recognition engine of open source, the characters of the license plate image capturing angle of the plate, image size, brightness.

Recognition of banknote serial number is one of the important functions for intelligent banknote counter implementation and can be used for various purposes. However, the previous character recognition method is limited to use due to the font type of the banknote serial number, the variation problem by the solid status, and the recognition speed issue. In this paper, we propose an aspect ratio based character region segmentation and a convolutional neural network (CNN) based banknote serial number recognition method. In order to detect the character region, the character area is determined based on the aspect ratio of each character in the serial number candidate area after the banknote area detection and de-skewing process is performed. Then, we designed and compared four types of CNN models and determined the best model for serial number recognition. Experimental results showed that the recognition accuracy of each character was 99.85%. In addition, it was confirmed that the recognition performance is improved as a result of performing data augmentation. The banknote used in the experiment is Indian rupee, which is badly soiled and the font of characters is unusual, therefore it can be regarded to have good performance. Recognition speed was also enough to run in real time on a device that counts 800 banknotes per minute.

Optical Character Recognition is the technology that recognizes text in images and converts them into digital format. Deep learning-based OCR is being used in many industries with large quantities of recorded data due to its high recognition performance. To improve medical services, deep learning-based OCR was actively introduced by the medical industry. In this paper, we discussed trends in OCR engines and medical OCR and provided a roadmap for development of medical OCR. By using natural language processing on detected text data, current medical OCR has improved its recognition performance. However, there are limits to the recognition performance, especially for non-standard handwriting and modified text. To develop advanced medical OCR, databaseization of medical data, image pre-processing, and natural language processing are necessary.

The pulmonary function test (PFT) is an essential data source for evaluating the effect of drugs on the lungs or the status of lung function. However, the numeric values of PFT cannot be easily used for clinical studies without labor-intensive manual efforts, because PFTs are usually recorded as image files. This study was aimed at constructing a de-identified, open-access PFT database with various clinical information. For constructing the PFT database, optical character recognition (OCR), regular expression, and the parsing technique were used to extract alphanumeric data from the PFT images in a Korean tertiary teaching hospital. This longitudinal observational database contains 413,000 measurements of PFT from 183,000 patients.
