An address recognition apparatus, characterized by comprising: an identification-data obtaining module configured to obtain identification data from a deliverable object; a search module configured to search a server connected via a network or in a local environment for location data indicating a location where the deliverable object is received, based on the identification data obtained by the identification-data obtaining module, the location data being associated with identification data as registration data; a correction-coefficient memory module configured to store a correction coefficient for an area associated with the location data; a correction-coefficient change module configured to decrease the correction coefficient in the correction-coefficient memory module, which is associated with the location data where the deliverable object is received; an image obtaining module configured to obtain an image of a region in which an address is written from the deliverable object; an evaluation-value calculation module configured to extract address line candidates from the image and to match a plurality of extracted address region candidates with an address database, hereby calculating an evaluation value for each candidate address; an evaluation-value correction module configured to correct the evaluation values with correction coefficients, and calculate corrected evaluation values by multiplying or adding the evaluation values with the correction coefficients for the area of the obtained addresses; and a recognition module configured to recognize an address of a delivery destination of the deliverable object, based on the corrected evaluation values corrected by the evaluation-value correction module. an identification-data obtaining module configured to obtain identification data from a deliverable object; a search module configured to search a server connected via a network or in a local environment for location data indicating a location where the deliverable object is received, based on the identification data obtained by the identification-data obtaining module, the location data being associated with identification data as registration data; a correction-coefficient memory module configured to store a correction coefficient for an area associated with the location data; a correction-coefficient change module configured to decrease the correction coefficient in the correction-coefficient memory module, which is associated with the location data where the deliverable object is received; an image obtaining module configured to obtain an image of a region in which an address is written from the deliverable object; an evaluation-value calculation module configured to extract address line candidates from the image and to match a plurality of extracted address region candidates with an address database, hereby calculating an evaluation value for each candidate address; an evaluation-value correction module configured to correct the evaluation values with correction coefficients, and calculate corrected evaluation values by multiplying or adding the evaluation values with the correction coefficients for the area of the obtained addresses; and a recognition module configured to recognize an address of a delivery destination of the deliverable object, based on the corrected evaluation values corrected by the evaluation-value correction module.
