Application of Fuzzy Set Theory to Syntactic Pattern Recognition of Handwritten Capitals
Walter J.M. Kickert, Henk Koppelaar · IEEE Transactions on Systems Man and Cybernetics · 1976
An algorithm for automatic recognition of handwritten capital letters is described in terms of formal grammars. The formalism is used for a priori computer time and memory optimization. Moreover, the syntactic recognition scheme is extended by introducing the concept of fuzzy sets instead of the usual probabilistic approach.
