Abstract
According to an embodiment, a recognition device includes a detector, a recognizer, and a matcher. The detector is configured to detect a character candidate from an input image. The recognizer is configured to generate recognition candidate from the character candidate. The matcher is configured to match the recognition candidate with a knowledge dictionary and contains modeled character strings to be recognized, and generate a matching result obtained by matching a character string presumed to be included in the input image with the dictionary. Any one of a real character code that represents a character and a virtual character code that specifies a command is assigned to an edge. The matcher gives, when shifting a state of the dictionary in accordance with an edge to which the virtual character code is assigned, a command specified by the virtual character code assigned to the edge to a command processor.
