Ocr of degraded documents using hmm-based techniques

Abstract

In earlier papers [6, 8], we presented an HMM-based OCR system referred to as the BBN BYBLOS OCR system in this paper, incorporating the BBN BYBLOS continuous speech recognition system. The BYBLOS OCR system uses a character model trained on a corpus of text images, a lexicon and a grammar. A brief review of the BYBLOS OCR system is provided in the following section.
