Abstract

This paper presents a categorization of the knowledge used during the stage of post-processing of the recognized results in a system that automatically reads handwritten information from forms. The objective is to handle the uncertainty present in the semantics of each field of the form. We use grammatical rules particular of the Portuguese language and specialized information about the characteristics of the recognition system. A knowledge-based system uses the different information classes to collect evidence in order to correct the misclassified characters.
