Abstract :
This paper focuses on the realization of a bilingual Chinese-English OCR system. First, the Twice-Segment Algorithm is used for segmentation of documents with Chinese and English characters mixed. Then the comprehensive recognition method is employed to improve the robustness of Chinese character recognition. A new measurement of robustness of OCR recognition performance is also put forward here. Finally, exciting experimental results are given
