Abstract:
One of the major remaining problems in OCR is the processing of merged characters. In this paper we describe the current state of our investigation towards the possibility of a solution which takes advantage of information available in a structural recognition system. Examples are given and some heuristic rules referring to a second level segmentation by means of curve partitioning are discussed. Finally, an OCR model involving multiple level distinction and segmentation is suggested.
