Abstract :
The paper recalls the idea of classification trees in OCR (optical character recognition) systems and proposes a technique for the automatic design of these classification trees. The design of both the classification trees and of the classification operators are based on training from sample pairs of observed-ideal images, allowing the development of customized OCRs
