چکیده

We are interested in the problem of curve identification, motivated by problems in handwriting recognition. Various geometric approaches have been proposed, with one of the most popular being “elastic matching.” We examine the problem using distances defined by inner products on functional spaces. In particular we examine the Legendre and Legendre-Sobolev inner products. We show that both of these can be computed in online constant time. We compare both with elastic matching and conclude that the Legendre-Sobolev distance measure provides a competitive alternative to elastic matching, being almost as accurate and much faster.

Invarianceness for Character Recognition Using Geo-Discretization Features

Recognition rate of characters in the handwritten is still a big challenge for the research because of a shape variation, scale and format in a given handwritten character. A more complicated handwritten character recognition system needs a better feature extraction technique that deal with such variation of hand writing. In other hand, to obtain efficient and accurate recognition rely on off-l...

Online Handwritten Indian Script Recognition: A Human Motor Function Based Framework

This paper presents the online handwriting recognition for Indian scripts. The primary concern of the approach is the modeling of human motor functionality while writing characters. This is achieved by looking at the whole pen trajectory where the time evaluation of the pen coordinates plays a crucial role. A low complexity classifier has been designed and the proposed similarity measure appear...

بازشناسی برخط حروف مجزای دست‌نویس فارسی بر اساس تشخیص گروه بدنه اصلی با استفاده از ماشین بردار پشتیبان

In this paper a new method for the online recognition of handwritten Persian characters has been proposed which uses a set of simple features and Support Vector Machine (SVM) as a classifier. The task of preprocessing allows us to equalize feature vectors from different characters. This algorithm is implemented in two steps. In the first step, input character is classified into one of eighteen ...

A Dataset of Online Handwritten Assamese Characters

This paper describes the Tezpur University dataset of online handwritten Assamese characters. The online data acquisition process involves the capturing of data as the text is written on a digitizer with an electronic pen. A sensor picks up the pen-tip movements, as well as pen-up/pen-down switching. The dataset contains 8,235 isolated online handwritten Assamese characters. Preliminary results...

Oiahcr: online isolated arabic handwritten character recognition using neural network

In this paper, an online isolated Arabic handwritten character recognition system is introduced. The system can be adapted to achieve the demands of hand-held and digital tablet applications. To achieve this goal, despite of single neural networks, four neural networks are used, one for each cluster of characters. Feed forward back propagation neural networks are used in classification process....
