Name

Signature

do_ocr_multi_class_svm(Character, Image : : OCRHandle : Class)

Description

do_ocr_multi_class_svmdo_ocr_multi_class_svmDoOcrMultiClassSvmDoOcrMultiClassSvmDoOcrMultiClassSvmdo_ocr_multi_class_svm computes the best class for each of the characters given by the regions CharacterCharacterCharacterCharactercharactercharacter and the gray values ImageImageImageImageimageimage with the SVM-based OCR classifier OCRHandleOCRHandleOCRHandleOCRHandleOCRHandleocrhandle and returns the classes in ClassClassClassClassclassValclass. In contrast to do_ocr_single_class_svmdo_ocr_single_class_svmDoOcrSingleClassSvmDoOcrSingleClassSvmDoOcrSingleClassSvmdo_ocr_single_class_svm, do_ocr_multi_class_svmdo_ocr_multi_class_svmDoOcrMultiClassSvmDoOcrMultiClassSvmDoOcrMultiClassSvmdo_ocr_multi_class_svm can classify multiple characters in one call, and therefore typically is faster than a loop that uses do_ocr_single_class_svmdo_ocr_single_class_svmDoOcrSingleClassSvmDoOcrSingleClassSvmDoOcrSingleClassSvmdo_ocr_single_class_svm to classify single characters. However, do_ocr_multi_class_svmdo_ocr_multi_class_svmDoOcrMultiClassSvmDoOcrMultiClassSvmDoOcrMultiClassSvmdo_ocr_multi_class_svm can only return the best class of each character. Before calling do_ocr_multi_class_svmdo_ocr_multi_class_svmDoOcrMultiClassSvmDoOcrMultiClassSvmDoOcrMultiClassSvmdo_ocr_multi_class_svm, the classifier must be trained with trainf_ocr_class_svmtrainf_ocr_class_svmTrainfOcrClassSvmTrainfOcrClassSvmTrainfOcrClassSvmtrainf_ocr_class_svm.

Execution Information

Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
Automatically parallelized on tuple level.

Parameters

CharacterCharacterCharacterCharactercharactercharacter (input_object) region(-array) → object

Characters to be recognized.

ImageImageImageImageimageimage (input_object) singlechannelimage → object (byte / uint2)

Gray values of the characters.

OCRHandleOCRHandleOCRHandleOCRHandleOCRHandleocrhandle (input_control) ocr_svm → (handle)

Handle of the OCR classifier.

ClassClassClassClassclassValclass (output_control) string(-array) → (string)

Result of classifying the characters with the SVM.

Result

If the parameters are valid the operator do_ocr_multi_class_svmdo_ocr_multi_class_svmDoOcrMultiClassSvmDoOcrMultiClassSvmDoOcrMultiClassSvmdo_ocr_multi_class_svm returns the value TRUE. If necessary, an exception is raised.
