چکیده

A novel fast method for line segment extraction based on chain code representation of thinned sketches (or edge maps) is presented and exploited for Persian signature recognition. The method has a parallel nature and can be employed on parallel machines. It breaks the macro chains into several micro chains after applying shifting, smoothing and differentiating. The micro chains are then approximated by straight line segments. Length and position distributions of the extracted line segments are used to make a compact feature vector for Iranian cursive signature. The feature vector is invariant under affine transforms and can be used effectively in paperless office projects. Experimental results show fast response and accurate recognition/retrieval rate.

رفع اعوجاج هندسی متون به‌کمک اطلاعات هندسی خطوط متن

Document images produced by scanners or digital cameras usually have photometric and geometric distortions. If either of these effects distorts document, recognition of words from such a document image using OCR is subject to errors. In this paper we propose a novel approach to significantly remove geometric distortion from document images. In this method first we extract document lines from do...

Use of the Shearlet Transform and Transfer Learning in Offline Handwritten Signature Verification and Recognition

Despite the growing growth of technology, handwritten signature has been selected as the first option between biometrics by users. In this paper, a new methodology for offline handwritten signature verification and recognition based on the Shearlet transform and transfer learning is proposed. Since, a large percentage of handwritten signatures are composed of curves and the performance of a sig...

Persian off-line signature recognition with structural and rotation invariant features using by one-against-all SVM classifier

The problem of automatic signature recognition has received little attention in comparison with the problem of signature verification, despite its potential applications for many business processes and can be used effectively in paperless office projects. This paper presents model-based off-line signature recognition with rotation invariant features. Non-linear rotation of signature patterns is...

Off-Line Persian Signature Identification and Verification Based on Image Registration and Fusion

Signature verification and Identification has great importance for authentication purpose. Persian signatures are different from other signature types because people usually do not use text in it and they draw a shape as their signature, therefore, a different approach should be considered to process such signatures. In this paper, a method for off-line Persian signature identification and veri...

Recognition of Handwritten Persian/Arabic Numerals Based on Robust Feature Set and K-NN Classifier

Persian handwritten numerals recognition has been a frontier area of research for the last few decades under pattern recognition. Recognition of handwritten numerals is a difficult task owing to various writing styles of individuals. A robust and efficient method for Persian/Arabic handwritten numerals recognition based on K Nearest Neighbors (K-NN) classifier is presented in this paper. The sy...
