Fuzzy-attribute graph with application to Chinese character recognition

To include fuzzy properties in solving some types of problems, the attributes graph is extended to provide a fuzzy-attribute graph (FAG). With such an extension, equality of attributes can no longer be used when matching of FAGs is considered, as equality of two fuzzy sets is too stringent a condition. A measure for matching two FAGs is suggested. The measure has its interpretation in fuzzy logic. The result of applying the model to the recognition of handprinted Chinese characters is presented.<
