Abstract

In structural character recognition, a character is usuallyviewed as a set of strokes and the spatial relationshipsbetween them. In this paper, we propose a stochastic modelingscheme by which strokes as well as relationships arerepresented by utilizing the hierarchical characteristics oftarget characters. Based on the proposed scheme, a handwrittenHangul (Korean) character recognition system isdeveloped. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme isshown through experimental results conducted on a publicdatabase.
