fixed size, while retaining the centroid and aspect ratio, in order to extract a feature vector

/** @brief Allow to implicitly load the default character classifier when creating an OCRBeamSearchDecoder object.

@param filename The XML or YAML file with the classifier model (e.g. OCRBeamSearch_CNN_model_data.xml.gz)

The CNN default classifier is based in the scene text recognition method proposed by Adam Coates &
Andrew NG in [Coates11a]. The character classifier consists in a Single Layer Convolutional Neural Network and
a linear classifier. It is applied to the input image in a sliding window fashion, providing a set of recognitions
at each window location.
