Abstract :
Two different approaches are described to combine the results of different classifiers. The first approach is based on the Dempster/Shafer theory of evidence and the second one is a statistical approach with some assumptions on the input data. Both approaches were tested for user-dependent recognition of on-line handwritten characters
