Abstract

“Hybrid” systems in which numerical and qualitative (“statistical” and “structural”) recognition subsystems merely cohabit have been known for some time [12]. A hybrid architecture is described in which the results of the qualitative recognition procedure focus attention on the significant numerical tests best suited to resolve the inherent ambiguities of the qualitative recognition subsystem.
