Hi there! Can someone give me the entire code for optical character recognition in matlab, i'm new to matlab and i'd be glared if someone teaches me.
Thank you in advance.

Sounds like homework. If someone gave you the entire code, what would be left for you to do? And who would get the academic credit for the assignment?

Atleast i'd learn from it, actually its not an assignment, its part of a project where my friend needed me to help and i don't know anything about matlab. He's away from internet connection thought i'd help that's it. Of course searched on google and came up with this http://www.mathworks.in/matlabcentral/fileexchange/18169-optical-character-recognition-ocr i think more fonts would do the job. Thank you.

So Diego Orlando will get the class credit then ?

Depends on how complex the background is. captchas are pretty effective in most cases so it's not so easy. See Jose-Luis's comment above yours. It's no exaggeration. It's not something a few lines of MATLAB code will solve.

"m", upload a sample image or two so we have an idea of what kind of complexities are involved.

As far as I am concerned, you should refer to:
and
and come back when you've made some effort in learning the basics and developed some code by yourself.
You've been asking for complete code since February; in your last question, you copied/pasted some code from someone else and you show that you don't know (have a doubt) how a line that performs the most basic CAT is working. It would be much much more efficient if you would forget about OCR for a week or so and spend this time learning the basics (using e.g. the references that I gave you). You would then be able to understand the code that you find online, experiment on your side with some tests/developments of your own, and hence demonstrate that you made some effort when you ask questions here, which would make it much more likely that you get an answer.

You won't find any OCR code here in the Answers forum. You'd best look elsewhere, such as the File Exchange or to third party developers or to VisionBib.

What happens when you apply standard OCR to the first of those images, about gas pumps?

How well are they detected? Are some letters detected better than others, or is it position dependent? What if you invert the image so it is black writing on a white background, then does it do better?

This has not been a great forum for OCR questions. Find what you can in the File Exchange, or in VisionBib, or via a web search. You're pretty much on your own from then on, though we can help with syntax and programming efficiency questions. For algorithms . . . not so much - you're expected to develop your own algorithms.
