PURPOSE:To recognize the European language character of a type with high accuracy by checking a size after an unknown pattern is recognized by utilizing a code to designate the size of the horizontal direction classified by a character and the starting position of a pattern to be connected. CONSTITUTION:On the dictionary (template) of a character pattern, a code designating a size in the horizontal direction classified by a character and the starting position of the pattern to be connected is provided, and after an unknown pattern is recognized by utilizing this, the size is checked. At the time of segmenting it with a segmenting candidate and the character size is not coincident, rejection is obtained. Consequently, the pointer for segmenting is shifted to the next candidate segmenting position and characteristic extraction and matching are executed again. In such case, as well as the preceding case, not only the matching between characteristic vectors, but also the matching of the character size can be executed.
