Abstract :
An online recognition method for handwritten Hiragana characters is developed based upon a complex AR model. The time delay of the AR model is enlarged so that global attributes of handwritten characters are well incorporated into the model, and a character segmentation technique is developed for performance improvement. A good recognition score has been obtained for two different writers
