Significant progress has been achieved in recognition of handwritten words during the past five years. Cursive recognition is currently used in real-live systems for applications such as check, giro, generic form, and address processing. Common to these applications is the use of lexicon. This paper addresses the issues of lexicon completeness and its impact on accuracy (rejection and error rates). It has been documented in several address recognition studies that recognition accuracy falls off as the size of the lexicon increases. However, the error-rejection performance of word recognition, when the available lexicon is only partially complete has not been thoroughly analyzed.
