Unfortunately, you don't know that the algorithm got the right answer for the letters on the bottom row. You'd have to try it on an image where you already knew the answers. Other comment threads note the there are lots of errors on that last line in the eye chart. Again, you can't recover more information than is in the image. When multiple characters look identical when scaled down, no algorithm can recover them reliably.

- rcthompson 14y agoWell, with a 16/22 chance of getting a letter right, that gives a 15% chance of correctly reading a 6-letter license plate correctly. Of course that can be improved with more training, but I don't think it'll ever get high enough to make any dent in the conspiracy theories. Then again, maybe they'll all want to believe in the CSI-style zoom/enhance magic.
