Abstract
A method for context-aware text recognition employing two neuromorphic computing models, auto-associative neural network and cogent confabulation. The neural network model performs the character recognition from input image and produces one or more candidates for each character in the text image input. The confabulation models perform the context-aware text extraction and completion, based on the character recognition outputs and the word and sentence knowledge bases.
