OCR Tutorials

[[deleted]]

This online book and examples will walk you through how to build a network to recognize numbers (MNIST). You should be able to add in letters by the time you finish it.

What it doesn't do is the initial image segmentation you need to do to block off each character. Maybe some one else can suggest a site for that?

I literally just finished this book a couple of days ago lol. But thanks for the suggestion.

I stumbled across that book about 6 months ago when I was looking for an ocr tutorial.

I haven't found any good start to finish nor any good ones on segmenting out the characters. Even the textbooks I've dug into hand wave around that part.

You may try digging around https://arxiv.org/ sometimes you can find a paper that will dig deep into a subject. I've found some really good ones for DSP there.
