This repository contains a Node.js script for extracting text from images and parsing the extracted text to obtain specific information. The script utilizes optical character recognition (OCR) to extract text from images and outputs the extracted information in CSV format.

The assignment task involves the following steps:

1. Read Input Images: Provide input images containing the relevant text you want to extract. Place these images in the images/ directory.

2. Extract Selective Text: Extract specific information from the images, such as check marks on checkboxes and text written on lines.

3. Output Key-Value Pairs in CSV Format: Organize the extracted information into key-value pairs and output it in CSV format. Fields to include are Name, Husband Name/Father's Name, House Number, Age, and Gender.

1. Clone the Repository: Clone the repository to your local machine using Git:

   git clone https://github.com/your-username/image-text-extraction.git

2. Install Dependencies: Navigate into the cloned directory and install the required dependencies using npm:

   cd image-text-extraction
   sudo apt-get install tesseract-ocr
   npm install

1. Place Your Image Files: Put your image files containing the text you want to extract into the images/ directory within the repository.

2. Edit index.js: Customize the index.js file to specify the path to your image file(s) and any other settings you need to adjust.

3. Run the Script: Execute the Node.js script using the following command:

   node index.js

4. Check Output: Once the script finishes running, you'll find the extracted information saved in an output.csv file in the root directory of the repository.
