摘要
Character images which are to be sent to a neural network trained to recognize a predetermined set of symbols are first processed by an optical character recognition pre-processor which normalizes the character images. The output of the neural network is processed by an optical character recognition post-processor. The post-processor corrects erroneous symbol identifications made by the neural network. The post- processor identifies special symbols and symbol cases not identifiable by the neural network following character normalization. For characters identified by the neural network with low scores, the post-processor attempts to find and separate adjacent characters which are kerned and characters which are touching. The touching characters are separated in one of nine successively initiated processes depending upon the geometric parameters of the image. When all else fails, the post-processor selects either the second or third highest scoring symbol identified by the neural network based upon the likelihood of the second or third highest scoring symbol being confused with the highest scoring symbol.
