Interactive Training is a facility that can improve OCR performance. If implemented in your program, end users can conduct an interactive training session as the program performs OCR on an image document. Then it lets users apply the training results to future OCR processing.
When run, the Interactive Training facility highlights each questionable word in its OCR Training dialog box. The dialog box gives the user the opportunity to ignore the word, change the word, and/or add the word to a special training file as well as to the first selected user-defined dictionary.
The training file literally trains the OCR engine to perform OCR with greater efficiency and accuracy when it processes image documents similar to the one processed during the training session.
After the interactive training session is completed, the user deselects interactive training. When recognizing image documents similar to the one processed during the training session, the user selects the training file and user-defined dictionary for use so that their training data can be applied.
Note: OCR processing is available with Imaging for Windows Professional Edition V1.0, V1.1, and V2.0 only.
