Compare several strings and output average
#1
Hello Forum :)

this is my first post in the forum and my first day with python.
Searched the internet for my problem but could not find a good solution so i thought i try my luck with you.

Situation:
I experimented a little bit with OCR in python3 and it works pretty well with pytesser.
Since the text in the image has multiple colors, I basically create 6 copies of the image with different color channel setups.
So three images have just one channel (red, green or blue) and three images have two channels (red/green, red/blue or blue/green). This results in 6 different strings extracted from the images with slight variations.

Question:
Is there a good way to compare these 6 strings not necessarily line by line but in a more dynamic way? Some images miss some wordwraps or whole lines.
Maybe even with a way to weigh certain results in certain situations more than others? I.e: The no-green-image captures text no other image does, but is still right, even if it is the outlier.

Thanks for your help
