ABSTRACT

In this paper, we have developed an automated scoring system for structured formalized answer sheets composed of printed problem numbers and handwritten answers. In the initial stage, we performed gradient normalization to accurately recognize the problem numbers and answers, and subsequently applied the EasyOCR Framework for character recognition. Notably, we introduced a location correction algorithm to accurately detect the positions of numbers, thereby improving the detection rate from the original 70% to 100%. The number recognition model of EasyOCR originally had an accuracy of 89%, but we improved it to 93% through transfer learning. Experimental results showed that the implementation of an automatic scoring system using EasyOCR was feasible, and this system is expected to increase the efficiency of grading tasks in the educational field.
