Goodrich Michael Q. Mullinix Anderson University Anderson University Anderson University bdmcpheron@anderson.eduAbstractMany engineering disciplines require an undergraduate course in control systems, but fewintroduce students to programmable logic controllers (PLCs), which are commonly used toimplement real-time process control in industry. Curricular exposure to PLC systems is desirablefor many internship and full-time career opportunities for students studying

In the Feature Extraction stage, the OCR application analyzes the isolated characters fordistinguishing features: the tail of a capital Q, the stem of an L, and other minute details. TheOCR software records these details for the penultimate stage: Classification.Classification uses several machine learning algorithms: K- Nearest Neighbor (K-NN) classifier,Support Vector Machines (SVM) classifier, and Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN) classifier toclassify the segments of the image into characters. The extracted text is then output to the userduring the Post-Processing phase. During this phase, the machine-encoded text could be placedin a file and edited for grammatical or spelling errors.Implementation [Research design] Our
