TL;DR

A method for handprinted Kanji character classificatin is proposed and a feature vector that represents the distribution of strokes is generated and is matched with average vectors in a dictionary.

Abstract

A method for handprinted Kanji character classificatin is proposed in this paper. After extraction of directional line segments and partitioning of the character frame area, a feature vector that represents the distribution of strokes is generated and is matched with average vectors in a dictionary.
