Character information recognizer

TLDR: In this paper, a character information given from a reading part 1 is stored temporarily at a memory part 2 and then supplied to a recognition processing part 3, where the part 3 contains a buffer circuit 31, a feature extracting circuit 32, a collating circuit 33, a recognition dictionary part 34, an indirect recognition subject character selection circuit 35 and an indirect relation subject character connection dictionary part 36.

Abstract: PURPOSE: To increase the number of characters to be recognized with small memory capacity and to improve the responsiveness of recognition, by storing a character different from the character to be recognized with the prescribed relation to the character to be recognized. CONSTITUTION: The character information given from a reading part 1 is stored temporarily at a memory part 2 and then supplied to a recognition processing part 3. The part 3 contains a buffer circuit 31, a feature extracting circuit 32, a collating circuit 33, a recognition dictionary part 34, an indirect recognition subject character selection circuit 35 and an indirect recognition subject character connection dictionary part 36. The circuit 33 calculates the distance between a pattern extracted by the circuit 32 and a feature pattern of the part 34. Then the direct recognition subject character having the highest degree of resemblance is extracted, and the characters to be recognized are displayed in order of higher degree of resemblance. Here the data of the part 36 is referred to for different characters which are not displayed, and the character information related to the extracted character information is displayed to be selected by a keyboard 5.
