Summary: Image processing is a rapidly evolving field with immense significance in science and engineering. One of the latest applications of Image processing is in Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR). Intelligent Character Recognition is the computer translation of handwritten text into machine-readable and machine-editable characters. It is an advanced version of Optical Character Recognition system that allows fonts and different styles of handwriting to be recognized during processing with high accuracy and speed. ICR, in combination with OCR and OMR (Optical Mark Recognition), is used in forms processing. Forms processing is a process by which one can capture information entered into different data fields filled in forms and convert it to an editable text.
