Abstract

We describe a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) based word recognition engine currently being developed to be integrated with the CENPARMI Bank Cheque Processing System. The various modules are described in detail, and preliminary results are compared with our previous global feature recognition scheme. The engine is tested on words from a database of over 4,500 cheques of 1,400 writers.
