Your Text: Insert Slimies » Insert UBB Code » Close Last Tag \| All Tags UBB Help	I've actually got two areas of interest here... 1) Pattern matching: I have an image of some large object and I want to locate and isolate a particular area of it (a fairly small area) based upon certain geometric features in the general area I'm interested in. Is 'pattern matching' the correct term for this even? Are there other names or descriptions for this that I can use when searching for information? Does anyone know of (or used) any utilities that would accomplish this? 2) Digital character recognition: I'll have an image that has an alphanumeric string in it and I'd like to be able to read the string programmatically. Something along the lines of the way [url=http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/]WhatTheFont[/url] works, except I won't care about the font, just the text. I've found a few projects that seem to be aimed at this: [url=http://lem.eui.upm.es/ocre.html]OCRE[/url] [url=http://jocr.sourceforge.net/]JOCR[/url] [url]http://sourceforge.net/projects/oocr]OOCR[/url] Has anyone worked with anything like this? Any recommendations of what to look for or sources of information? For both of these, I'm just looking for a proof of concept right now, so: - trial/demo is good - free is excellent - open source is better And as always, any information and/or resources are appreciated. I haven't found a whole lot on pattern matching (very possibly because I'm looking for the wrong thing), but I've found tons on DCR/OCR and I need to separate the useful information from the common, not-so-useful information :) Many thanks, LF -- Any sufficiently advanced bug is indistinguishable from a feature.
