Abstract :
Presents a new approach called regional projection transformation (APT) which converts a compound pattern into an integral object. Diagonal-diagonal regional projection transformation (DDRPT), has been described and analyzed. The patterns transformed from this method possesses a couple of important characteristics which facilitate the recognition of compound patterns. Parallel algorithm for the DDRPT has been presented in this paper. It can speed up computation and the recognition process
