Abstract

This paper presents a new technique to improve thecombination of classification decisions obtained fromlocal analysis of patterns. Specifically, a geneticalgorithm is used to determine the optimal weight vectorto balance the local decisions in the combination process.The experimental results, carried out in the field ofhand-written numeral recognition, demonstrate theeffectiveness of the new technique.
