Introduction
With the help of machine learning (ML), an optical character recognition (OCR) scanner can convert handwritten, typed, or printed text into machine-encoded text. Humankind has long aspired to create machines capable of fulfilling human roles. One such expansion of human capabilities is the ability to read papers with various types of text. As a result of the development of sophisticated and powerful optical character recognition (OCR) innovations, machine reading has transformed from an unrealistic fantasy into a reality over the course of the past few years. The motivation behind this program is to help teachers, speakers, and understudies in making a text report from their written by hand notes. The person acknowledgment strategy is isolated into two phases: printed character acknowledgment and manually written character acknowledgment. There are two sorts of printed records: amazing quality printed archives and weakened printed reports. Disconnected and online person acknowledgment have been laid out for transcribed character acknowledgment. At present, there is a developing craving to create a paperless environment. Transcribed text acknowledgment is basic for people, however it is quite difficult for PC frameworks. Various scientists have worked in this theme, however nobody has achieved 100 percent accuracy. Our eyes can perceive different individuals' manually written characters, yet a machine can't. 'Optical Character Recognition' is the response to this problem. One of the methodologies used to transform an examined or printed picture record into an editable text report is optical character recognition (OCR). The objective of this task is to utilize this capacity through an Android application. Expanding our premium in the creating versatile application market in the product business.

Historical review of OCR research and development
From a verifiable point of view, OCR framework innovative work are examined. Business frameworks' verifiable development is referenced. Research and development approaches, for example, layout coordinating and primary examination are inspected. It is featured that the two techniques are turning out to be nearer and combining. Business items are isolated into three ages, with a few common OCR frameworks chose and examined top to bottom for each. A few comments are given on present day OCR approaches, like master frameworks and neural networks, and certain unsettled difficulties are recognized. The authors' viewpoints and expectations for future improvements are advertised.

A Complete Optical Character Recognition Methodology for Historical
This work presents an entire OCR approach for distinguishing verifiable messages, whether printed or manually written, with next to no information on the typeface. This interaction is partitioned into three stages: The initial two cycles incorporate structure a data set for preparing utilizing an assortment of records, while the third includes perceiving new report pictures. At first, a pre-handling stage is per-formed, which contains picture binarization and increase. A hierarchical division procedure is utilized in the second stage to perceive text lines, words, and characters. A bunching approach is then used to bunch characters with comparable shapes. This is a self-loader strategy since the client might mediate anytime to correct grouping issues and apply an ASCII name. After this, an information base is worked to be used for acknowledgment. Ultimately, in the third stage, the aforementioned division procedure is utilized for each new record picture, while acknowledgment is reliant upon the person data set made in the past step.

Proposed Work
In this Paper, we recognize text from uploaded image using OCR. There are different phases in an OCR to efficiently process the text such as optical scanning, location segmentation, pre-processing, segmentation, representation, feature extraction, training and recognition and post-processing. In training phase Random Forest, Decision Tree, MLP and KNN can be used to make system efficient to process huge data. Recognition of handwritten text is an active area of research. Various techniques involved in OCR and their limitations are discussed along with an overview of prediction Time of Random Forest, Decision Tree, MLP and KNN based approaches.

Methodology
This issue is tended to by various versatile scanner programming that catch pictures of the relative multitude of notes and save them in pdf design. This tends to everybody's stockpiling and conservation concerns. The issue with these checked notes is that whenever they are created, they can't be altered. Any massive changes to these notes would be hard to execute. The notes, which are additionally in filtered design, are in manually written composing that would be hard for anybody to decipher.
In this paper, we use OCR to recognize text from a transferred picture. To successfully deal with message, an OCR goes through many stages, including optical examining, area division, pre-handling, division, portrayal, highlight extraction, preparing and acknowledgment, and post-handling. Random Forest, Decision Tree, MLP, and KNN might be utilized in the preparation stage to make the framework more effective at handling a lot of information. Manually written text acknowledgment is a functioning subject of study. A few OCR techniques and their limits are examined, as well as an outline of the expectation Season of Random Forest, Decision Tree, MLP, and KNN based approaches

Methods
To complete the previously mentioned project, we made the modules recorded underneath.

Implementation
Random Forest : Leo Breiman and Adele Cutler developed the well-known ML strategy known as random forest, which combines the results of multiple decision trees to produce a single result. Its prominence has been aided by its simplicity of purpose and adaptability, as well as its capacity to handle issues with arrangement and relapse. Information researchers use random forest hands on in different areas, including finance, stock exchanging, clinical, and web based business. It's used to estimate factors like buyer conduct, patient history, and security, which assist these organizations with working without a hitch.
Decision Tree : A non-parametric managed learning strategy called a decision tree can be used for characterization and regression applications. It has a tree structure that is moderate and involves a root center point, branches, inside centers, and leaf centers. One of the administered ML calculations is the choice tree. This approach is helpful for both relapse and characterization issues, but it is all the more frequently utilized for arrangement issues. A decision tree utilizes a progression of if-else rules to show and classify information.

MLP :
In a MLP, information goes in the forward course from contribution to yield layer, like a feed forward network. The back propagation learning method is utilized to prepare the neurons in the MLP. MLPs are expected to surmised any ceaseless capability and to resolve gives that can't be settled directly.

KNN:
A non-parametric, directed learning classifier, the k-nearest neighbors technique, or KNN or k-NN, uses location to describe or predict the collection of a single data of interest. The KNN calculation can compete with the most trustworthy models due to its extremely precise expectations. As a result, applications that do not require an understandable model but do require high exactness may benefit from the KNN approach. The accuracy of the not totally settled by the distance measure.

Conclusions
An machine learning-based optical character recognition (OCR) scanner is a blend of a word processor and an OCR processor that is utilized to change any kind of paper-based record into a computerized report without changing its design. The client is supposed to give the framework with a picture or filtered archive with the information that must be changed into computerized text. The framework will take the info and concentrate the text from it, then it will safeguard the textual style or style of the text in the event that it is accessible, any other way it will keep the construction of the record assuming the info is transcribed. This technique will bring about successful record the board, and any firm might utilize it to move towards a paperless procedure. We are completing two cycles as augmentation work, for example, picture and sound contributions for hand character acknowledgment.
