    "title": "Recognizing Handprinted Digit Strings: a Hybrid Connectionist/Procedural Approach",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "We describe an alternative approach to hand-\nprinted word recognition using a hybrid of proce-\ndural and connectionist techniques. We utilize two\nconnectionist components: one to concurrently make recognition and segmentation hypotheses, and another to perform refined recognition of segmented\ncharacters. Both networks are governed by a pro-\ncedural controller which incorporates systematic do-\nmain knowledge and procedural algorithms to guide\nrecognition.\nW e employ an approach wherein an image is pro-\ncessed over time by a spatiotemporal connectionist\nnetwork. The scheme offers several attractive fea-\ntures including shift-invariance and retention of lo-\ncal spatial relationships along the dimension being\ntemporalized, a reduction in the number of free pa-\nrameters, and the ability to process arbitrarily long\nimages.\nRecognition results on a set of real-world isolated\nZIP code digits are comparable to the best reported\nto date, with a 9 6 . 0 % recognition rate and a rate of\n9 9 . 0 % w h e n 9.5% of the images are rejected.",
