Image filtering, OCR, question

[Mandami]

Is there anyone here who could give me some directions on how to solve these, automatically ?

A CAPTCHA like you are asking about is a program that protects websites against bots by generating and grading tests that humans can pass but current computer programs cannot.

The only reason for wanting to automatically solve a CAPTCHA would be if you have a nefarious purpose.

if you have a nefarious purpose

or, too lazy; but anyway, that's irrelevant. Concerning my "nefarious purpose", it's always as usually: "trying to take over the World".

If you figure that out perfectly, you'll be a millionaire as many big companies are trying their best to do that. 😉

It takes a few seconds to type in those letters and you are allegedly "too lazy" to do that but you want computer programming help with "some directions on how to solve these"? Sure.

programming help

I think "programming" is too much of saying. Some details about what filters should I apply to help with the OCR will be enough. For sure, some people know it very well; so, I took it as a challenge 😀 ...and probably, in the end, I'll solve it too 😛

You titled the thread "Programming Question". Either way there is a very good reason web sites use CAPTCHA and the only people who ever attempt to bypass it are hackers up to no good.

You might want to have a look at something like this if you haven't read it already as it gives an idea of one approach:
