Abstract

A hybrid character recognition system that uses a feature-extraction method is proposed. The features are extracted using a wavelet transform, preclassified using a k-nearest-neighbor-based neural net and subsequently postprocessed using an optical correlator. This feature-based neural wavelet optical architecture is then tested on blurred character images.
