چکیده

This paper describes a system for the recognition of Arabic text in document images. The system is designed to perform well on low resolution and low quality document images. On a set of 138 page images digitized at 200x200 dpi the system achieved a 93% correct character recognition rate. On the same pages digitized at 100x200 dpi, the system achieved an 89% character recognition rate. The systems processes a typical page with simple layout and 45 lines of text in 90 seconds on a 400 Mhz Pentium II running Linux.

High capacity steganography tool for Arabic text using 'Kashida'

Steganography is the ability to hide secret information in a cover-media such as sound, pictures and text. A new approach is proposed to hide a secret into Arabic text cover media using "Kashida", an Arabic extension character. The proposed approach is an attempt to maximize the use of "Kashida" to hide more information in Arabic text cover-media. To approach this, some algorithms have been des...

A segmentation-free approach to Arabic and Urdu OCR

In this paper, we present a generic Optical Character Recognition system for Arabic script languages called Nabocr. Nabocr uses OCR approaches specific for Arabic script recognition. Performing recognition on Arabic script text is relatively more difficult than Latin text due to the nature of Arabic script, which is cursive and context sensitive. Moreover, Arabic script has different writing st...

Word-level recognition of multifont Arabic text using a feature vector matching approach

Many text recognition systems recognize text imagery at the character level and assemble words from the recognized characters. An alternative approach is to recognize text imagery at the word level, without analyzing individual characters. This approach avoids the problem of individual character segmentation, and can overcome local errors in character recognition. A word-level recognition syste...

Offline recognition of omnifont Arabic text using the HMM ToolKit (HTK)

This paper presents a cursive Arabic text recognition system. The system decomposes the document image into text line images and extracts a set of simple statistical features from a narrow window which is sliding a long that text line. It then injects the resulting feature vectors to the Hidden Markov Model Toolkit (HTK). HTK is a portable toolkit for speech recognition system. The proposed sys...
