Various kinds of complex table forms are used for many purposes, e.g. application forms. This paper presents a graph grammar based approach to the complex table form structure analysis. In our study, field types are classified into four, i.e. blank, insertion, indication, explanation, and four kinds of indication patterns are defined between indication and blank or insertion. Then, two dimensional relations between horizontally and vertically adjacent fields are described by graph representation and those reduction procedures are defined as production rules. We have designed 56 meta rules from which 6745 rules are generated for a complex table form analysis. Experimental results have shown that 31 kinds of different table forms are successfully analyzed using two types of meta grammar.
