Abstract
CAPTCHA (Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart), a security technique widely used on the Internet, can be utilized to distinguish human users from automated programs. The rapid development of deep learning technology has led to the emergence of graph-based recognition techniques that demonstrate excellent performance, which has prompted the investigation of CAPTCHA recognition based on deep learning as a research area of significant interest. This paper addresses the challenging problem of CAPTCHA recognition based on deep learning techniques, reviews the development and classification of CAPTCHA, examines traditional CAPTCHA recognition methods, and delves into the application of deep learning in CAPTCHA recognition. Therefore, a CAPTCHA recognition system is designed and its effectiveness is verified through experiments. This paper makes a significant contribution to the field of CAPTCHA recognition by proposing a deep learning-based approach, which not only enhances the accuracy and efficiency of CAPTCHA recognition, but also provides new ideas and methods for the further development. In the future, further research will be conducted in the field of CAPTCHA recognition to explore additional deep learning models and techniques with the aim of boosting the security and user experience of CAPTCHA.
