RuPatient health information system (HIS) is a computer program consisting of a doctor-patient web user interface, which includes algorithms for recognizing medical record text and entering it into the corresponding fields of the system.Aim. To evaluate the effectiveness of RuPatient HIS in actual clinical practice.Material and methods. The study involved 10 cardiologists and intensivists of the department of cardiology and сardiovascular intensive care unit of the L. A. Vorokhobov City Clinical Hospital 67 We analyzed images (scanned copies, photos) of discharge reports from patients admitted to the relevant departments in 2021. The following fields of medical documentation was recognized: Name, Complaints, Anamnesis of life and illness, Examination, Recommendations. The correctness and accuracy of recognition of entered information were analyzed. We compared the recognition quality of RuPatient HIS and a popular optical character recognition application (FineReader for Mac).Results. The study included 77 pages of discharge reports of patients from various hospitals in Russia from 50 patients (men, 52%). The mean age of patients was 57,7±7,9 years. The number of reports with correctly recognized fields in various categories using the program algorithms was distributed as follows: Name — 14 (28%), Diagnosis — 13 (26%), Complaints — 40 (80%), Anamnesis — 14 (28%), Examination — 24 (48%), Recommendations — 46 (92%). Data that was not included in the category was also recognized and entered in the comments field. The number of recognized words was 549±174,9 vs 522,4±215,6 (p=0,5), critical errors in words — 2,1±1,6 vs 4,4±2,8 (p<0,001), non-critical errors — 10,3±4,3 vs 5,6±3,3 (p<0,001) for RuPatient HIS and optical character recognition application for a personal computer, respectively.Conclusion. The developed RuPatient HIS, which includes a module for recognizing medical records and entering data into the corresponding fields, significantly increases the document management efficiency with high quality of optical character recognition based on neural network technologies and the automation of filling process.

In principle, printed source material should be made machine-readable with systems for Optical Character Recognition, rather than being typed once more. Offthe-shelf commercial OCR programs tend, however, to be inadequate for lists with a complex layout. The tax assessment lists that assess most nineteenth century farms in Norway, constitute one example among a series of valuable sources which can only be interpreted successfully with specially designed OCR software. This paper considers the problems involved in the recognition of material with a complex table structure, outlining a new algorithmic model based on ‘linked hierarchies’. Within the scope of this model, a variety of tables and layouts can be described and recognized. The ‘linked hierarchies’ model has been implemented in the ‘CRIPT’ OCR software system, which successfully reads tables with a complex structure from several different historical sources.

Rain removal from pictures taken under bad weather conditions is a challenging task that aims to improve the overall quality and visibility of a scene. The enhanced images usually constitute the input for subsequent Computer Vision tasks such as detection and classification. In this paper, we present a Convolutional Neural Network, based on the Pix2Pix model, for rain streaks removal from images, with specific interest in evaluating the results of the processing operation with respect to the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) task. In particular, we present a way to generate a rainy version of the Street View Text Dataset (R-SVTD) for "text detection and recognition" evaluation in bad weather conditions. Experimental results on this dataset show that our model is able to outperform the state of the art in terms of two commonly used image quality metrics, and that it is capable to improve the performances of an OCR model to detect and recognise text in the wild.

This paper describes about one of the many extension of Optical Character Recognition (OCR), that is Optical Music Recognition (OMR). OMR is used to recognize musical sheets into digital format, such as MIDI or MusicXML. There are many musical symbols that usually used in musical sheets and therefore needs to be recognized by OMR, such as staff; treble, bass, alto and tenor clef; sharp, flat and natural; beams, staccato, staccatissimo, dynamic, tenuto, marcato, stopped note, harmonic and fermata; notes; rests; ties and slurs; and also mordent and turn. OMR usually has four main processes, namely Preprocessing, Music Symbol Recognition, Musical Notation Reconstruction and Final Representation Construction. Each of those four main processes uses different methods and algorithms and each of those processes still needs further development and research. There are already many application that uses OMR to date, but none gives the perfect result. Therefore, besides the development and research for each OMR process, there is also a need to a development and research for combined recognizer, that combines the results from different OMR application to increase the final result’s accuracy. Index Terms—Music, optical character recognition, optical music recognition, musical symbol, image processing, combined recognizer
