Abstract:
A method for identifying characters in scanned images of objects includes identifying a first set of characters in a scanned image of an object based on connected component analysis, identifying a second set of characters for the object based on an optical character recognition (OCR) process on the image of the object, and combining the first set of characters with the second set of characters to create a third set of characters.
