Table 2 Correct classification rates for the k-NN method for symbols correctly extracted and partially extracted. The methods employed for the extraction of the vectors of features are: the Fourier descriptor, with the edge function computed by distance from the centroid (FD1), the Wavelet transform coefficients (WTC), the Fourier transform coefficients (FTC) and the two sets of angular-radial transform coefficients based on center of gravity of the edges (ART1) and on the center of the bounding box (ART2).
