Exer7: Optical Character Recognition Part 1

In this exercise we were tasked to detect what number is present on the input image.

To do so we used a set of training images as basis. For each number, we made five samples thus resulting in 50 control images.

We used Euclidean Distance Formula:

This formula is used on the training data images and on the input image. The lower the result, the closest it is to the input image.

Correct output!

Incorrect output :(

Although we were able to detect the connected components, some of the numbers resulted to the wrong output. Perhaps the features that we used aren't enough.
