Abstract
Backpropagation networks are studied in the context of the recognition of handwritten and machine printed characters and, specifically, the problem of the recognition of 'false-positive' patterns is investigate d. The idea is proposed of integrating into the processing architectur e an independent set of 'guard units' which act as basic matchers, rej ecting patterns not belonging to the training classes.
