<p>In a character recognition system for recognising handwritten characters a predetermined characteristic amount is extracted for each stroke of a handwritten character, a characteristic amount word is created having one possibility of a binary value only in one or more bit positions corresponding to the characteristic amount, an AND operation (6) is performed bit-by-bit between the reference word of the corresponding stroke of the character of interest, and an OR operation is performed for all the bits of the results of the AND operation. If the number of binary values of the results of the OR operation for all the strokes of the character of interest exceeds a threshold, it is judged to be a candidate. <IMAGE></p> |
