COPY AND PASTE OPERATION USING OCR WITH INTEGRATED CORRECTION APPLICATION

摘要

Methods and systems execute different optical character recognition processes on an image using a network-based server to automatically recognize characters in the image, and aggregate the recognition results from the different optical character recognition processes to produce a final character recognition result that includes relatively higher confidence recognized characters and relatively lower confidence recognized characters. These methods and systems then output the final character recognition result from the network-based server to a remote computerized device over a computerized network. The output provides the relatively higher confidence recognized characters as default characters for pasting, and also provides the relatively lower confidence recognized characters as alternate characters for pasting. Additionally, this output provides a default pointer movement operation that automatically pastes the default characters into another input field, and a secondary pointer movement operation that automatically pastes one or more of the alternate characters for pasting into the input field.

主权项

1. A method comprising:
receiving, from a remote computerized device, an image containing characters into a network-based server, said remote computerized device being in communication with said network-based server through a computerized network; executing different optical character recognition processes on said image to automatically recognize said characters in said image as controlled by said network-based server; aggregating recognition results from said different optical character recognition processes recognizing said characters in said image to produce a final character recognition result using said network-based server, said aggregating including relatively higher confidence recognized characters and relatively lower confidence recognized characters in said final character recognition result; and outputting said final character recognition result from said network-based server to said remote computerized device over said computerized network, said outputting providing said relatively higher confidence recognized characters as default characters for pasting and providing said relatively lower confidence recognized characters as alternate characters for pasting.
