Abstract

The different aspects of a process for recognizing symbols in documents are considered and the techniques that have been most commonly used during the last ten years, in the different application fields, are reviewed. Methods used in the representation, description and classification phases are shortly discussed and the main recognition strategies are mentioned. Some of the problems that appear still open are proposed to the attention of the reader.
