Augmenting OCR and NLP

This working group will explore potential opportunities to enhance Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and Natural Language Processing (NLP) technologies.

Resolution Requirements

Image resolution needed for OCR return is a tricky subject. The general rule is a preferred resolution of 300 dpi (dots per inch). However, this generally applies to images of text obtained from a scanner and dpi values can be misleading when a camera is used to image the text. DPI is only relevant if the document size is 1:1 and focal distance will vary according to camera placement. Typically, one inch within the image obtained from a camera is not proportional to one inch within the text document.
