Abstract
Correctly recognizing characters with peculiarities for each writer is a difficult problem. The process of absorbing variations in individual writing by creating an individual dictionary is also difficult when a writer is not specified and the total number of writers is large. In this paper the authors propose a method to improve the results of isolated character recognition in forms in which the same writer writes many characters by taking the characteristics of the writer's writing on a form as a character distribution in a character feature space. In concrete terms, the authors first perform isolated character recognition on all characters on the same form. Then, based on the results of isolated character recognition, clustering of input character groups is performed for each character category. Clusters which are very likely to include misrecognized characters from isolated character recognition are extracted based on the results of clustering. Then character categories in the extracted cluster are automatically amended based on the distance from all clusters in other categories. In the same fashion, automatic amending is performed for rejected characters. Based on experiments to evaluate handwritten numerals on OCR forms, the authors show that the precision of numeral recognition is improved by using this approach as a form of postprocessing for isolated character recognition. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
