I have a project in need of machine learning. It takes an image and turns it into text. How do I begin acquiring the data needed to feed the machine? Should I just start taking pictures of this particular item on many different devices and get as many friends to do the same? How do I begin gathering my data is the question?

    You mean like an image of a car and it outputs "car", or "car" written on an image?

    @tekashi sorry I should have been a bit more particular I need an image of words that then get turned into digital text. This falls under NLP it I’m not mistaken.

    Ah its easy then, look up pytesseract (or tesserract if its not python).

    Also no, nlp is the human meaning of digital text.
