Details of Research: Printed Kanji Recognition

I proposed a method using peripheral distributions for printed Kanji recognition.

To tell the truth, the proposed technique itself has not gone into the practical usage.

I believe, however, the technique influenced researches of OCR in Japan, especially for handwritten Kanji character recognition.

My Doctoral Thesis is related to the research.
