I am searching for pointers to surveys on optical character
recognition (OCR).  I am only tangentially interested in on-line
recognition or cursive handwriting analysis.  The only surveys I have
dug up so far are:

@ARTICLE{               mantas
  , AUTHOR = "Mantas, J."
  , TITLE = "Methodologies in Pattern Recognition and Image Analysis ---
 A brief Survey"
  , JOURNAL = {\it Pattern Recognition}
  , VOLUME = "20"
  , NUMBER = "1"
  , PAGES = "1-6"
  , YEAR = "1987"
}

@ARTICLE{               mantas-cr
  , AUTHOR = "Mantas, J."
  , TITLE = "An Overview of Character Recognition Methodologies"
  , JOURNAL = {\it Pattern Recognition}
  , VOLUME = "19"
  , NUMBER = "6"
  , PAGES = "425-430"
  , YEAR = "1986"
}

@ARTICLE{               mori-yamamoto-yasuda
  , AUTHOR = "Mori, S. and Yamamoto, K. and Yasuda, M."
  , TITLE = "Research on Machine Recognition of Handprinted Characters"
  , JOURNAL = {\it IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine 
	Intelligence}
  , VOLUME = "PAMI-6"
  , NUMBER = "4"
  , PAGES = "386-405"
  , YEAR = "1984"
}

@ARTICLE{               gaillat-berthod
  , AUTHOR = "G. Gaillat and M. Berthod"
  , TITLE = "Panorama des techniques d'extraction de traits 
	caract\'{e}ristiques en lecture optique des caract\`{e}res"
  , JOURNAL = {\it Revue Technique Thomson-CSF}
  , VOLUME = "11"
  , NUMBER = "4"
  , PAGES = "943-959"
  , YEAR = "1979"
  , MONTH = "D\'{e}cembre"
}

If you know of any others please send me a pointer via e-mail.  I will
post a summary to the group if there seems to be enough interest.  Thanks.
