What is the difference between ICR and OCR?

Data Science Asked on August 27, 2021

I’ve just found the term "Intelligent Character Recognition" (ICR) on Wikipedia and other pages. According to Wikipedia:

In computer science, intelligent character recognition (ICR) is an advanced optical character recognition (OCR) or — rather more specific — handwriting recognition system that allows fonts and different styles of handwriting to be learned by a computer during processing to improve accuracy and recognition levels.

Is this just a marketing stunt or are there actually techniques which are specified as OCR and other techniques which are ICR? Are there Conferences / Journals about OCR which distinguish between OCR and ICR? (If yes, please add a reference)
