Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 資訊工程研究所 === 83 === This thesis presents an application of neural networks on off- line similar handwritten Chinese character recognition. The proposed method consists of three components:(1)confusing character sets construction,(2)feature selection,(3)modular neural network recognition. In order to evaluate the proposed recognition system, we choose 5401 frequently used Chinese characters as our trainning and testing domain. The database of each testing and trainning sample character was created by the Computer and Communication Laboratory of Industrial Technology Research Institute. Because the samples in this database were collected by more than 2600 people, our recognition system could reach a high generality and user-independence. Experimental results show that, the method improves recognition rate from 86.01% to 90.12%.
