ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for determining word frequency from a document without first converting the document to character codes. The method includes morphological image processing to determine word unit characteristics for placement into equivalence classes utilizing non-content based information. Word shape representations are preferably determined and compared to define equivalent word units.
