Slant Correction for Offline Handwritten Telugu Isolated Characters and Cursive Words
نویسنده
چکیده
Slant correction is one of the preprocessing steps for the character recognition. This proposed method is simple and efficient for correcting the slant of offline handwritten Telugu isolated characters and cursive words. This method is motivated from the chain code of the word contour slant correction method but this proposed method does not identify the chain code of the word or character contour. This method uses the vertical starting and ending co-ordinates for estimating the slant. It estimates the slant direction using the maximum vertical projection profile and corrects the slant of offline handwritten Telugu isolated characters and cursive words using shear transformation. The experimental results demonstrate comparative analysis of the efficiency of the proposed method compared with that of the existing method. The proposed method efficiently reduced the processing time compared with the existing methods.

A New Approach for Segmenting Difficult Cursive Handwritten Words from Benchmark Database
Segmentation of highly slanted and horizontally overlapped characters is an important issue of the day. This paper presents a novel simple approach for character segmentation of such difficult cursive words without using any slant correction technique. Rather a new concept of corezone is introduced for segmenting such difficult words. However due to inherent nature of cursive words, few charact...

A lexicon-driven segmentation-recognition scheme on Bangla handwritten city-name recognition is proposed for Indian postal automation. In the proposed scheme, at first, binarization of the input document is done and then to take care of slanted handwriting of different individuals a slant correction technique is performed. Next, due to the script characteristics of Bangla, a water reservoir con...
متن کاملOff-line Cursive Handwritten Word Segmentation, A new approach
The segmentation of off-line cursive handwritten word is an important step in cursive handwriting recognition. In this paper a new, simple yet effective approach is proposed. Proposed technique is based on the analysis of the ligatures of the characters in the cursive word. The only preprocessing is to skeleton the word to allow variations in pen thickness and tilt in writing. There is no const...

In this paper we show how the Multi-State Time Delay Neural Network (MS-TDNN), which is already used successfully in continuous speech recognition tasks, can be applied both to online single character and cursive (continuous) handwriting recognition. The MS-TDNN integrates the high accuracy single character recognition capabilities of a TDNN with a non-linear time alignment procedure (dynamic t...
متن کاملImproved Offline Connected Script Recognition Based on Hybrid Strategy
In domain of analytic cursive word recognition, there are two main approaches: explicit segmentation based and implicit segmentation based. However, both approaches have their own shortcomings. To overcome individual weaknesses, this paper presents a hybrid strategy for recognition of strings of characters (words or numerals). In a two stage dynamic programming based, lexicon driven approach, f...
