A Novel Comprehensive Database for Arabic Off-Line Handwriting Recognition
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents the work toward developing a new comprehensive database for Arabic off-line handwriting recognition. The database includes: isolated Indian digits, numerical strings, Arabic isolated letters, and a collection of 70 Arabic words. Also, the database includes a free format sample of an Arabic date. A data entry form was designed to collect written samples from Arabic native speakers. Our database is advanced in terms of the variety of sets, words and number of the participants involved. The databases have been divided into respective training, testing and validation sets which will be available in the future for the handwriting recognition community.

متن کاملOff-Line Arabic Handwriting Character Recognition Using Word Segmentation
The ultimate aim of handwriting recognition is to make computers able to read and/or authenticate human written texts, with a performance comparable to or even better than that of humans. Reading means that the computer is given a piece of handwriting and it provides the electronic transcription of that (e.g. in ASCII format). Two types of handwriting: on-line and offline. The most important pu...

This thesis presents new approaches in off-line Arabic Handwriting Recognition based on conventional Bernoulli Hidden Markov models. Until now, the off-line handwriting recognition, in particular, the Arabic handwriting recognition is still far away form being perfect. Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are now widely used for off-line handwriting recognition in many languages and, in particular, in A...
