Handwriting Stroke Extraction Using a New XYTC Transform
نویسندگان
چکیده
The fundamental representation of handwriting is a quasi-contiguous set of strokes. In offline settings handwriting stroke extraction is complicated by adjacent and overlapping strokes. This paper describes a reconstruction of the stroke information using a newly developed XYTC transform. This representation is very appropriate for handwriting feature extraction, stroke segmentation, underline removal, cross-out detection, and word recognition. Applications related to financial document processing are described.

متن کاملAn Online Handwriting-recognition System Based on Unreliable Modules
In automatic recognition of unrestricted handwriting the ambiguities can be solved by top-down processing. However, automatic systems never have access to the extended background knowledge available to human readers. In order to replace this higher-level information we need to improve the reliability of the bottom-up processing. A handwriting-recognition system can be split up into six discrete...
