Individuality of Numerals

چکیده
The analysis of handwritten documents from the viewpoint of determining their writership has great bearing on the criminal justice system. In many cases, only a limited amount of handwriting is available and sometimes it consists of only numerals. Using a large number of handwritten numeral images extracted from about 3000 samples written by 1000 writers, a study of the individuality of numerals for identification/verification purposes was conducted. The individuality of numerals was studied using cluster analysis. Numerals discriminability was measured for writer verification. The study shows that some numerals present a higher discriminatory power and that their performances for the verification/identification tasks are very different.

متن کاملChurch numerals, twice!
This paper explains Church numerals, twice. The first explanation links Church numerals to Peano numerals via the well-known encoding of data types in the polymorphic λ-calculus. This view suggests that Church numerals are folds in disguise. The second explanation, which is more elaborate, but also more insightful, derives Church numerals from first principles, that is, from an algebraic specif...
