Abstract

In this paper we focus on some features frequently employed in Optical Character Recognition (OCR) especially in algorithms based on contour analysis. These features are of a topological and/or geometric kind somehow describing the characters. The results of an experiment to examine the identification and separation power of some features are summarized.
