Abstract: Based on a study of the extensive literature in handprint recognition, this paper presents a survey in this challenging field. Recognition algorithms, data bases, character models, and handprint standards are examined. Achievements in the recognition of handprinted numerals, alphanumerics, Fortran, and Katakana characters are analyzed and compared. Data quality and constraints, as well as human and machine factors are also described. Characteristics, problems, and actual results on on-line recognition of handprinted characters for different applications are discussed. New emphases and directions are suggested.
