Abstract

Conventional segmentation technique cannot extract an isolated character and a touching character. In this paper, to utilize information of such characters, we propose a novel character recognition method based on extracting feature points and voting. The voting algorithm of the proposed method is similar to the generalized Hough transform. This method enables us to extract and recognize such troublesome characters in relatively shorter computational time. The effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed by experiments.
