Abstract

A problem of linear Procrustes transformation of common (two-dimensional) matrices has been formulated and solved. An approach is proposed and an algorithm is developed for the Application of linear Procrustes transformation to letter recognition. The results of the recognition of printed Latin letters subjected to rotation and reflections are cited.
