final recognition result.
There is nothing in the applied references which, in any
way, suggests deriving the static stroke information from the
time ordered stroke information and the examiner has never
addressed this issue in the answer. Accordingly, the examiner
has not established the requisite prima facie case of
obviousness required for a proper rejection under 35 U.S.C. §
103.
The Guyon reference was applied against dependent claims
4, 10, 15 and 16 for a showing of neural networks for
performing character recognition. However, Guyon does not
provide for any of the deficiencies noted supra with regard to
the other three applied references as applied against the
independent claims. Accordingly, we will not sustain the
rejection of any of the claims under 35 U.S.C. § 103.
The decision of the examiner rejecting claims 1 through
20 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is reversed.
