  • Abstract
    A method of applying n-tuple recognition techniques to handwritten OCR, which involves scanning an n-tuple classifier over a chain-code of the image, is described. The traditional advantages of n-tuple recognition, i.e. training and recognition speed, are retained, while offering superior recognition accuracy as demonstrated by results on three widely used data sets
