چکیده

Deformable models are used to recognize handwritten characters which have a great variety of handwriting styles. The overall character shape is modeled by a B-spline and individual pixels are modeled by Gaussian functions. Model parameters associated with the spline and the Gaussian functions, together with their relative strength, are estimated using Bayesian inference. Under such a Bayesian framework, classiication becomes a process of model selection. This approach has been tested using data in a NIST database and the substitution rate (error rate) is about 4%.

Framework for Handwritten Character Recognitionusing Deformable Models

Recently, some deformable models have been proposed for character recognition, due to their ability to capture variations in handwriting. These proposed systems use deformable models to represent characters and to extract features, and subsequently feed the extracted information into a classiier. They often treat the three components { modeling, feature extraction, and clas-siication { as three...

A Bayesian Framework for Deformable Pattern Recognition With Application to Handwritten Character Recognition

Deformable models have recently been proposed for many pattern recognition applications due to their ability to handle large shape variations. These proposed approaches represent patterns or shapes as deformable models, which deform themselves to match with the input image, and subsequently feed the extracted information into a classifier. The three components—modeling, matching, and classifica...
