Book Number Detection, International Standard, Optical Character RecognitionAbstract
In the era of advanced education, assessing lecturer performance is crucial to maintaining educational quality. One aspect of this assessment involves evaluating the textbooks authored by lecturers. This study addresses the problem of efficiently detecting International Standard Book Numbers (ISBNs) within these textbooks using optical character recognition (OCR) as a potential solution. The objective is to determine the effectiveness of OCR, specifically the Tesseract platform, in facilitating ISBN detection to support lecturer performance assessments. The research method involves automated data collection and ISBN detection using Tesseract OCR on various sections of textbooks, including covers, tables of contents, and identity pages, across different file formats (JPG and PDF) and orientations. The study evaluates OCR performance concerning image quality, rotation, and file type. Results of this study indicate that Tesseract performs effectively on high-quality, low-noise JPG images, achieving an F1 score of 0.97 for JPG and 0.99 for PDF files. However, its performance decreases with rotated images and certain PDF conditions, highlighting specific limitations of OCR in ISBN detection. These findings suggest that OCR can be a valuable tool in enhancing lecturer performance assessments through efficient ISBN detection in textbooks.
