Analytic Word Recognition without Segmentation Based on Markov Random Fields
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a method for analytic handwritten word recognition based on causal Markov random fields is described. The words models are HMMs where each state corresponds to a letter; each letter is modelled by a NSHP-HMM (Markov field). Global models are build dynamically, and used for recognition and learning with the Baum-Welch algorithm. Learning of letter and word models is made using the parameters reestimated on the generated global models. No segmentation is necessary : the system determines itself the best limits between the letters during learning. First experiments on a real base of french check amount words give encouraging results of 83.4% for recognition.

Combination of Machine Learning Methods for Optimum Chinese Word Segmentation
This article presents our recent work for participation in the Second International Chinese Word Segmentation Bakeoff. Our system performs two procedures: Out-ofvocabulary extraction and word segmentation. We compose three out-of-vocabulary extraction modules: Character-based tagging with different classifiers – maximum entropy, support vector machines, and conditional random fields. We also co...

متن کاملCluster-Based Image Segmentation Using Fuzzy Markov Random Field
Image segmentation is an important task in image processing and computer vision which attract many researchers attention. There are a couple of information sets pixels in an image: statistical and structural information which refer to the feature value of pixel data and local correlation of pixel data, respectively. Markov random field (MRF) is a tool for modeling statistical and structural inf...
متن کاملAutomatic segmentation of English words using phonotactic and syllable information
It is difficult to demonstrate the effectiveness of prosodic features in automatic word recognition. Recently, we applied the suprasegmental concept and proposed an extra layer of acoustic modeling with syllables. Nevertheless, there is a mismatch between the syllable and the word units and that makes subsequent steps after acoustic modeling difficult. In this study, we explore English word seg...
