Integrating diverse knowledge sources in text recognition
1983
ACM Transactions on Information Systems
A new algorithm for text recognition that corrects character substitution errors in words of text is presented. The search for a correct word effectively integrates three knowledge sources: channel characteristics, bottom-up context, and top-down context. Channel characteristics are used in the form of probabilities that observed letters are corruptions of other letters; bottom-up context is in the form of the probability of a letter when the previous letters of the word are known; and top-down
