Similarity measures for pattern matching on-the-fly

Recently, we presented a new OCR-concept [1] for historic prints.The core part is the glyph recognition based on pattern matching with patterns that are derived from computer font glyphs and are generated on-the-fly.The classification of a sample is organized as a search process for the most similar glyph pattern.In this paper, we investigate several similarity measures which are of vital importance for this concept.
