Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate the adjustment of an individual dictionary by comparing the average feature quantity of the character written by a user with an average feature quantity registered and judging whether or not they are registered, in the individual dictionary registration of a character recognition, a sound recognition, etc. CONSTITUTION:When a rejected character and the character corrected by a user occur during the recognizing processing, a dictionary registering system control part 6 makes them into a registration mode by confirming to the user. Plural character patterns per one character written by the user are sent to a character recognizing part 3, feature extraction is executed, at the time of the difference threshold or above between a feature quantity A and a feature quantity C registered beforehand to the character, a warning is issued to the user, and when the response of the user can be registered, the feature quantity A is written into a dictionary RAM4 as the new dictionary of the character. Since the user can adjust an individual dictionary while the user uses the device, the burden of the user can be decreased.

Then, a plurality of character patterns for each character written by the user are sent to the character recognition unit 3, and features are extracted, and the feature amount AV and the original feature amount Cki for that character are extracted.
If the distance or similarity is greater than a certain threshold Th, a warning is issued to the user, and if the user's response is acceptable for registration, AV is written into the dictionary RAM 4 as a new dictionary for that character.
