چکیده

This paper presents a two-level based character recognition method in which a dynamically selection of the most promising zoning scheme for feature extraction allows us to obtain interesting results for character recognition. The first level consists of a conventional neural network and a look-up-table that is used to suggest the best zoning scheme for a given unknown character. The information provided by the first level drives the second level in the selection of the appropriate feature extraction method and the corresponding class-modular neural network. The experimental protocol has shown significant recognition rates for handwritten characters (from 80.82% to 88.13%).

Zoning Design for Handwritten Numeral Recognition

In the field of Optical Character Recognition (OCR), zoning is used to extract topological information from patterns. In this paper zoning is considered as the result of an optimisation problem and a new technique is presented for automatic zoning. More precisely, local analysis of feature distribution based on Shannon’s entropy estimation is performed to determine “core” zones of patterns. An ...
