Hand-written character recognition apparatus.

摘要

A hand-written character recognition apparatus comprises a buffer (15) for deriving and storing characteristics of the hand-written stroke data, a buffer (16) for storing rectangular outline data of the hand-written stroke data, a character dictionary (18) for storing characteristics of strokes of characters and directional relations of partial rectangular outline data of characters, and a character recognition circuit (19) for determining characters of the hand-written stroke data by comparing characteristics and directional relations of partial rectangular outline data of the hand-written stroke data with those stored in the character dictionary (18).
