ABSTRACT:
In the particular embodiments of the invention described in the specification, a pattern recognition apparatus includes a memory for storing information relating to a known set of characters, means for defining a matrix of selected mesh pattern, means for comparing an unknown character with the known set of characters based on the mesh pattern, and means for storing information relating to the unknown character if it exceeds a selected minimum deviation from all known characters.
