Abstract
This paper deals with a particular aspect of a technical document interpretation device: the recognition of multi-oriented and multi-scaled characters and symbols. The adopted methodology is based on original descriptors, relying on the computation of the Mellin Fourier Transform. These descriptors are then combined with classical invariant through the use of Genetic Algorithms. The application frame of this study is the interpretation of the documents of the French telephonic operator France-Telecom for which the recognition of symbols constitutes a crucial point for a robust interpretation.
