چکیده

Handheld devices generally provide the facility of text input through keys that are an inconvenient and slow way of input. Digitizing tablets and light pens, on the other hand provide a natural and convenient way of input. There are many online character recognizers for languages based on Roman and Chinese characters but there is no such commercial product for Urdu/Arabic text input. We present the design of an online Urdu handwriting recognition system that can recognize about 850 single character, 2 character and 3 character ligatures, enabling input of about 18000 common words from the Urdu Dictionary.

Lithium Ion Microscopy: Surface Sensitive Imaging with Elemental Contrast and without Charging Effects

We present a new nanoscale imaging technique based on detecting backscattered ions from a lithium focused ion beam (FIB). Scanning ion microscopes are of general interest as they provide image contrast that differs from scanning electron microscopes (SEM), as has been demonstrated with the traditional gallium FIB and the helium ion microscope [1]. Like helium, the low mass of lithium makes it i...

Investigation of Color Spaces for Face Recognition

This paper discusses a physics-based imaging model of scanning electron microscopes (SEM). The purpose is to accurately examine the imaging process of a SEM, which has to be necessary to realize novel applications of the SEM images, such as 3D shape reconstruction from image brightness. Its brightness is determined by the total energy of the secondary electrons derived by the incidence of accel...

Tabletop nanometer extreme ultraviolet imaging in an extended reflection mode using coherent Fresnel ptychography

We demonstrate the first (to our knowledge) general purpose full-field reflection-mode extreme ultraviolet (EUV) microscope based on coherent diffractive imaging. This microscope is capable of nanoscale amplitude and phase imaging of extended surfaces at an arbitrary angle of incidence in a noncontact, nondestructive manner. We use coherent light at 29.5 nm from high-harmonic upconversion to il...

High Energy BSE/SE/STEM Imaging of 8 um Thick Semiconductor Interconnects

High energy (100-400 keV) scanning electron microscope (SEM) imaging of samples can be performed in the transmission electron microscope (TEM)/scanning TEM (STEM) when the system has secondary electron (SE) and/or backscattered (BSE) electron detector(s) installed. Previously, very high resolution SE imaging has been demonstrated at 200 keV in a STEM with a spherical aberration corrected conden...

Design considerations and performance of a combined scanning tunneling and scanning electron microscope

We designed and built a combination of a scanning tunneling microscope ~STM! and a scanning electron microscope ~SEM! which is working under ultrahigh vacuum conditions ~base pressure typically 7 • 10 mbar!. The SEM is ideally used for surveying the sample and to control the STM tip positioning, while the STM extends the resolution range into the atomic scale. The design concept allows moving t...

A New Potential Contrast Agent for Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Iron Oxide-4A Nanocomposite

Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents have an important role to differentiate healthy and diseased tissues. Access and design new contrast agents for the optimal use of MRI are necessary. This study aims to evaluate iron oxide–4A nanocomposite ability to act as a magnetic resonance imaging contrast agent.Materials and Methods: Iron oxide–4A nanocomposite (F4A) was syn...
