An Automatic Outline Fitting Algorithm for Arabic Characters
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, an efficient algorithm for automatic outline capture of digital character images is presented. This method is well suited for non-Roman languages like Arabic, Urdu, Persian, etc. Contemporary word processing systems store shapes of the characters in terms of their outlines, and outlines are expressed as cubic Bezier curves. The process of capturing outlines includes steps detection of boundary, discorvering Corner Points and Break Points and fitting the curve. The work done in this paper, fully automate the above process and produces optimal results.

Curve Representation for Outlines of Planar Images using Multilevel Coordinate Search
This paper proposes an optimization technique for the outline capture of planar images. This is inspired by a global optimization algorithm based on multilevel coordinate search (MCS). By starting a search from certain good points (initially detected corner points), an improved convergence result is obtained. The overall technique has various phases including extracting outlines of images, dete...

متن کاملAn Adaptive Algorithm for the Automatic Segmentation of Printed Arabic Text
Character segmentation is a crucial step in most Arabic optical text recognition systems. The recognition process depends mainly on the accuracy of the character segmentation. This paper presents a novel adaptive algorithm for the off-line segmentation of printed Arabic text. There are many challenging features in the Arabic writing, for example, it is cursive and characters in a word can take ...
