This page is a part of CVprimer.com, a wiki devoted to computer vision. It focuses on low level computer vision, digital image analysis, and applications. It is designed as an online textbook but the exposition is informal. It geared towards software developers, especially beginners, and CS students. The wiki contains mathematics, algorithms, code examples, source code, compiled software, and some discussion. If you have any questions or suggestions, please contact me directly.

This is an illustration of how our algorithm in general and Pixcavator [1] in particular can be used for advanced image analysis, such as OCR. The combination of the location of center of mass of the letter with respect to the line, its size, and its topology allows you to identify the letter, in this idealized situation.
