Abstract
We developed a check reading system, termed INTERCHEQUE, which recognizes both the legal (LAR) and the courtesy amount (CAR) on bank checks. The version presented here is designed for the recognition of French, omni-bank, omni-scriptor, handwritten bank checks, and meets industrial requirements, such as high processing speed, robustness, and extremely low error rates. We give an overview of our recognition system and discuss some of the pattern recognition techniques used. We also describe an installation which processes of the order of 70,000 checks per day. Results on a data base of about 170,000 checks show a recognition rate of about 75% for an error rate of the order of 1/10,000 checks.Keywords
