Abstract

See full text

A high speed character matcher and method for measuring the similarity between a pair of binary patterns representing two-dimensional images. The patterns are compared on a bit by bit basis and when a discrepancy is detected, it is assigned an error penalty which is based on the two-dimensional context in which the error occurred. The types of error context which are typical in the comparison of distorted but otherwise similar characters are given a lower error than those typically encountered in the comparison of dissimilar characters.
