A new courtesy amount recognition module of CENPARMIpsilas check reading system (CRS) is proposed in this paper. The module consists of 3 main segments: pre-processing, segmentation and recognition, and post-processing. A new feedback-based segmentation algorithm is adopted for the segmentation task. Besides one individual numeral recognizer for numerals from dasia0psila to dasia9psila, one convolutional neural network(CNN) recognizer for ldquo00rdquo and ldquo000rdquo numeral strings is also integrated into our module for the recognition task. The experimental results on the Quebec Bell Check database show that the recognition rate of the courtesy amount has improved from 41.2% to 74.3%.
