| Abstract(in English) | It is known that combining multiple character recognition engines by majority logic is useful for improving the accuracy of character recognition. In the previous work, however, the suitability of each recognition engine for the input characters was not taken into account. On the other hand, several methods for automatic selection of recognition engines using the suitability of the engines have been proposed. We combine the above two approaches and propose a new method for combining multiple recognition engines. Experimental results show that the recognition accuracy improves from 97.8% to 98.2% using 14 Japanese character sets with 3195 characters each. |
