Method and apparatus for the determination of classification parameters for the classification of bank notes

摘要

A method for the determination of classification parameters or adaptation parameters for the classification of bank notes in different classes by means of a bank note processing apparatus includes: sensing measurement data for a plurality of reference bank notes having known properties by means of a sensor device of the bank note processing apparatus, at least some of the reference bank notes being provided with an adhesive strip; determining a set of classification parameters; ascertaining the distribution of the plurality of reference bank notes over the different classes on the basis of the measurement data of the reference bank notes and the set of classification parameters; and comparing the distribution over the different classes determined for the plurality of reference bank notes, with the optimal distribution of the reference bank notes over the different classes, and ascertained from the known properties of the plurality of reference bank notes.
