Abstract
Two applications of fuzzy integrals to handwritten word recognition are discribed. Fuzzy integrals are used in a dynamic programming based, offline handwritten word recognition algorithm. This algorithm finds optimal matches between word images and strings in lexicons. Fuzzy integrals are used to compute the match scores. Fuzzy integrals are also used in a hidden Markov model based, offline handwritten word recognition algorithm. In this case, fuzzy measures and integrals are used as alternatives to probabilistic measures and ordinary integrals. Results are presented on standard data sets consisting of real images collected form United States Postal Service mail stream.
