Robust Symbol Recognition using a Structural Approach Mathieu Delalandre CVC (Barcelona, Spain) (original) (raw)

In this paper we present a robust system of symbol recognition using a structural approach. Our key objective here is to provide a system, equaling the statistical ones in robustness concerning the recognition, to apply next to localization. To do it we have investigated two particular structural methods: the straight line detection using Hough Transform and the vector templates matching. Experiments done on the GREC2003 database show how their combination allows to obtain high recognition results.
