The Behavior Knowledge Space Fusion Method: Analysis of Generalization Error and Strategies for Performance Improvement

In the pattern recognition literature, Huang and Suen introduced the “multinomial” rule for fusion of multiple classifiers under the name of Behavior Knowledge Space (BKS) method [1]. This classifier fusion method can provide very good performances if large and representative data sets are available. Otherwise over fitting is likely to occur, and the generalization error quickly increases. In s...

Performance Improvement Strategies on Template Matching

This paper proposes an algorithm for offline recognition of handwritten characters, especially effective for large set characters such as Korean and Chinese characters. The algorithm is based on a template matching method which is easy to implement but suffers from low recognition performance. Two strategies has been developed to improve the performance of the template matching: one is multi-st...
