Abstract

We have built several trial programs (system) to test the assumptions we have made on improving the speed and accuracy of online Chinese character recognition results. This paper describes an online Chinese character database, which is built upon the analysis of the character segments. Therefore, the structure of the database covers only on the features of individual segment and the relations used to distinguish one character from another. On the other hand, the stroke sequence free algorithm checks the stroke segments iterately until all segments are evaluated between the input and reference characters. Therefore, even the users input the characters against the stroke order rules, the system still be able to get the correct result. Since the distance measure algorithm depends only on the features of segments, the system need not to distinguish radical and structure within characters.
