Automatic system of extraction and consolidation of data from digital images

Abstract

Optical mark recognition is the process of extracting respondent data from scanned form images by determining the state of its input fields (marks). This paper discusses the software used in solving the problem. It examines the existing applications, outlines their areas of use, and highlights the main limitations. Taking into account the pros and cons of such applications, an alternative solution is proposed. The system implements the necessary elements of automatic identification of forms and consolidation of data from them for nonprofit organizations and small businesses. Ref. 5, pic. 2
