Abstract

 Abstract: In the running world, there is growing demand for the software systems to recognize characters incomputer system when information is scanned through paper documents as we know that we have number ofnewspapers and books which are in printed format related to different subjects. These days there is a hugedemand in “storing the information available in these paper documents in to a computer storage disk and thenlater reusing this information by searching process”. One simple way to store information in these paperdocuments in to computer system is to first scan the documents and then store them as IMAGES. But to reusethis information it is very difficult to read the individual contents and searching the contents form thesedocuments line-by-line and word-by-word. The reason for this difficulty is the font characteristics of thecharacters in paper documents are different to font of the characters in computer system. As a result, computeris unable to recognize the characters while reading them. This concept of storing the contents of paperdocuments in computer storage place and then reading and searching the content is called DOCUMENTPROCESSING. Sometimes in this document processing we need to process the information that is related tolanguages other than the English in the world. For this document processing we need a software system calledCHARCATER RECOGNITION SYSTEM. This process is also called DOCUMENT IMAGE ANALYSIS (DIA).
