Recognition of Amazigh characters using SURF & GIST descriptors
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this article, we describe the recognition system of Amazigh handwritten letters. The SURF descriptor, specifically the SURF-36, and the GIST descriptor are used for extracting feature vectors of each letter from our database which consists of 25740 manuscripts isolated Amazigh characters. All the feature vectors of each letter form a training set which is used to train the neural network so that it can calculate a single output on the information it receives. Finally, we made a comparative study between the SURF-36 descriptor and GIST descriptor. Keywords—SURF; GIST; Principal Component Analysis; Neural Network; Amazigh Characters.

Amazigh Character Recognition System Based on Continuous HMMs and Directional Features
This paper proposes a global approach to the recognition of handwritten Amazigh characters. The method used is based on continuous Hidden Markov Models and directional features. The input provided to our system is a vector of features extracted directly from an image of Amazigh characters using sliding windows technique based on hough transform. The obtained vector is translated into a sequence...

متن کاملRecognition of Isolated Printed Tifinagh Characters
Most of the reported works in the field of character recognition systems achieve modest results by using a single method for calculating the parameters of the character image and a single approach in the classification phase of the system. So, in order to improve the recognition rate, this document proposes an automatic system to recognize isolated printed Tifinagh characters by using a fusion ...
متن کاملOffline Signature Verification Using Surf Feature Extraction and Neural Networks Approach
In this paper we will evaluate the use of SURF features in handwritten signature verification. For each known writer we will take a sample of three genuine signatures and extract their SURF descriptors. In this paper, off-line signature recognition & verification using neural network is proposed, where the signature is captured and presented to the user in an image format. Signatures are verifi...
