  • Abstract
    An optical Chinese character recognition system using a hidden Markov model (HMM) classifier has been developed to solve the input problem of Chinese characters. The recognition rate for 5401 multi-font characters reaches 97% on average for inside tests and 91.5% on average for outside tests.
