Abstract

This paper describes work in progress aimed a t obtaining a practical recognition system by filtering the noisy output of an inexpensive character classifier through multiple stages of context analysis to produce high-quality final output. The s y stem is designed to process the text of handprinted formal languages, such as programming languages and mathematical notation. The system is syntax-directed in that a contextual processor for a particular language is constructed by a one-time, algorithmic analysis of the language grammar. The resulting analysis engine massages the classifier output by successive vocabulary matching, namespacet clustering, and syntactic analysis to produce as output a syntactically valid interpretation of the text, with as many errors corrected as possible. A more complete description of the system can be found in Darden.
