Name

write_ocr_trainfwrite_ocr_trainfWriteOcrTrainfWriteOcrTrainfwrite_ocr_trainf — Storing of training characters into a file.

Signature

write_ocr_trainf(Character, Image : : Class, TrainingFile : )

Description

The operator write_ocr_trainfwrite_ocr_trainfWriteOcrTrainfWriteOcrTrainfWriteOcrTrainfwrite_ocr_trainf serves to prepare the training with the operator trainf_ocr_class_mlptrainf_ocr_class_mlpTrainfOcrClassMlpTrainfOcrClassMlpTrainfOcrClassMlptrainf_ocr_class_mlp or trainf_ocr_class_svmtrainf_ocr_class_svmTrainfOcrClassSvmTrainfOcrClassSvmTrainfOcrClassSvmtrainf_ocr_class_svm. Hereby regions, representing characters, including their gray values (region and pixel) and the corresponding class name will be written into a file. An arbitrary number of regions within one image is supported. For each character (region) in CharacterCharacterCharacterCharactercharactercharacter the corresponding class name must be specified in ClassClassClassClassclassValclass. The gray values are passed via the parameter ImageImageImageImageimageimage. If no file extension is specified in TrainingFileTrainingFileTrainingFileTrainingFiletrainingFiletraining_file the extension '.trf' is appended to the file name. The version of the file format used for writing data can be defined by the parameter 'ocr_trainf_version'"ocr_trainf_version""ocr_trainf_version""ocr_trainf_version""ocr_trainf_version""ocr_trainf_version" of the operator set_systemset_systemSetSystemSetSystemSetSystemset_system.

Execution Information

Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
Processed without parallelization.

Parameters

CharacterCharacterCharacterCharactercharactercharacter (input_object) region(-array) → object

Characters to be trained.

ImageImageImageImageimageimage (input_object) singlechannelimage → object (byte / uint2)

Gray values of the characters.

ClassClassClassClassclassValclass (input_control) string(-array) → (string)

Class (name) of the characters.

TrainingFileTrainingFileTrainingFileTrainingFiletrainingFiletraining_file (input_control) filename.write → (string)

Name of the training file.

Default value: 'train_ocr' "train_ocr" "train_ocr" "train_ocr" "train_ocr" "train_ocr"

File extension: .trf

Example (C)

char       name[128];
HTuple     Class,Name;

read_image(&Image,"character.tiff");
binary_threshold(Image,&Dark, 'otsu', 'dark', &UsedThreshold);
connection(Dark,&Character);
count_obj(Character,&num);
create_tuple(&Class,num);
open_window(0,0,-1,-1,0,"","",&WindowHandle);
set_color(WindowHandle,"red");
for (i=0; i<num; i++) {
  select_obj(Character,&SingleCharacter,i);
  disp_region(SingleCharacter,WindowHandle);
  printf("class of character %d ?\n",i);
  scanf("%s\n",name);
  set_s(Class,name,i);
}
create_tuple(&Name,1);
set_s(Class,Name,"trainfile");
T_write_ocr_trainf(Character,Image,Class,Name);

Result

If the parameters are correct, the operator write_ocr_trainfwrite_ocr_trainfWriteOcrTrainfWriteOcrTrainfWriteOcrTrainfwrite_ocr_trainf returns the value TRUE. Otherwise an exception will be raised.
