In this method, uncertain numeric strings extracted through the automatic recognition stage based on topographical map features only are confirmed and corrected by the interactive recognition stage. Therefore one can obtain highly precise recognition results. The method was applied to numeric string recognition from a map image which includes 102 strings made up of 249 numerals. As a result, 95.1% of 102 numeric strings were correctly recognized., text, Third International Conference on Document Analysis and Recognition, August 14-16, 1995, Montreal, Canada, Third International Conference on Document Analysis and Recognition (ICDAR'95) Volume 2, pp. 940-943 1995}, pages = {940--943}, publisher = {IEEE Computer Society Press}, title = {A system for recognizing numeric strings from topographical maps}, volume = {2}, year = {1995} }
