Hello programmers

I'm new to the c# world as I only have c/c++ programming skills ... I needed a consultation for my graduation project ... any intervention is much appreciated

I'm thinking about a program that automatically obtains the results of a multiple-choice-exam (auto correction)... it takes scanned exam-paper, identifies the correct answer for every question and gives the overall result.

As I have no clue how to do this ... I was just thinking about topics from image processing and artificial intelligence ... I want my program to identify a certain shape (circle) -> a blank circle = no answer, a colored circle = answer ... and I want it to read and understand human hand-writing.

I have no clue ... maybe edge detection and neural networks is the place to start ? ... S.O.S PLZ.

Why would you choose a language you know nothing about to do a project you have no idea how to do as your graduation project?

I don't intend that to sound mean, and I am sorry if it did. But we don't typically operate that way here. We typically help with coding problems, but not "I don't know where to start" problems.

I think you might get more help with this in the Computer Science forum because your question isn't really language-specific, it's more about the theory of how to detect patterns in images.

hi again

yeah ... i'm new to this coding forums thing ... my university is crappy (what to expect from a third world country) they only teach us c and c++ and they expect us to teach our selves more ... that's why i'm thinking of c# ... i'm taking the graduation course the next semester (three months from now) and the semester goes for another four months ... so i have seven months from now to get it done ... the problem is that i'm taking a training course at an IT institute and because we live in a third world country we set there for six houres doing nothing but drinking cofee and telling jokes ... i wanted to use my time wisely (teach myself c# and start with my graduation project) ... i lack experience and i needed an advise

I'll try the computer science forum

The topic you are looking at is computer vision.

OpenCV?
