An image processing apparatus that generates an image for character recognition from a read image includes at least one memory that stores instructions, and at least one processor that executes the instructions to perform extracting of an area of handwritten character information and an area of printed character information from the read image, clipping of a partial image of the area of handwritten character information and a partial image of the area of printed character information out of the read image, and generating of the image for character recognition by combining the partial image of the area of handwritten character information and the partial image of the area of printed character information being associated with each other.

An object is to improve character recognition accuracy of handwritten characters, originally a single continuous character string, described discontinuously. An image area corresponding to a handwritten character is separated from a document image obtained by scanning a document and a character block including characters having the same baseline is extracted. Then, in a case where a plurality of character blocks is extracted from the first image area, a single character block is generated by combining character blocks based on a position relationship of the plurality of character blocks.

A system can include a data store, including a subscriber list, and a computing device in communication therewith. The computing device can perform optical character recognition of an image to identify text portions, each text portion including position data and a subset of text portions including handwritten data. The computing device can associate each text portion with a respective column of a plurality of columns and a respective row of a plurality of rows based on the position data. The computing device can analyze individual ones of text portions associated with a particular column to determine a particular data type corresponding to the particular column. The computing device can generate a respective entry to the subscriber list for individual ones of a subset of the plurality of rows with individual ones of the text portions from the particular column being stored in a field associated with the particular data type.

A video processing method and related devices are provided. The method includes: acquiring board writing images of consecutive frames from a video with unobstructed board writing; calculating a difference area between the image of a current frame and a reference image; replacing a corresponding image block in the board writing image of the current frame with a corresponding image block in the reference image to obtain a new board writing image for each of the difference area; outputting the new board writing image to form a new video. The board writing image of the current frame are sequentially each board writing image after the board writing image of a first frame in the board writing images of the consecutive frames, and the reference image is the board writing image associated with a previous board writing image.
