Abstract

Templates in pattern recognition are typically derived by averaging a number of patterns from the same class. An average distance is usually computed using the Euclidean metric. In this paper we investigate the use of an angle measure when deriving templates for angle tests. Applications of angle tests to check waveform similarity in recognizing printed letters and in remote medical diagnosis are illustrated.
