11. A system to identify characters in an image, the system comprising: an image capturing device configured to receive the image; a memory configured to store processor-executable instructions; and a processor operatively coupled to the memory, wherein the processor is configured to: analyze the received image to detect a region of interest of the received image; compare, relative to the detected region of interest, a first portion of the received image to a set of patterns to determine a first coincidence value for each pattern in the set of patterns; generate a first series of hypotheses based at least on the determined first coincidence values; compare a second portion of the received image to a set of selected patterns to determine a second coincidence value for each pattern in the set of selected patterns, wherein the set of selected patterns is selected based at least on the generated first series of hypotheses; generate a second series of hypotheses based at least on the determined second coincidence values; and recognize the characters in the received image based at least on the first series of hypotheses and the second series of hypotheses.

The system of claim 11 , wherein the processor is configured to calculate hypothesis values for each hypothesis of recognition in the generated first series of hypotheses based at least on the determined first coincidence values of a grapheme with a pattern.
