This is a proposal to encode the ‘Makasar’ script in the Unicode standard. The script was described by Christopher Miller in Unicode Technical Note #35 “Indonesian and Philippine Scripts and Extensions”, where it was identified as “Makassarese jangang-jangang bird script” and recommended for encoding in the standard (2011: 43–46, 51). A preliminary proposal to encode the script under the name “...

This paper describes statistical techniques used for modelling transliteration systems between the scripts of Punjabi language. Punjabi is one of the unique languages, which are written in more than one script. In India, Punjabi is written in Gurmukhi script, while in Pakistan it is written in Shahmukhi (Perso-Arabic) script. Shahmukhi script has its origin in the ancient Phoenician script wher...

Today, handwritten script recognition is challenging part in the computer science. It is important to know a script used in writing. Script recognitions have many important applications like automatic transcription of multilingual documents, searching document image, script sorting. Proposed work emphasis on the “block level technique” where script recognition recognizes the script of the given...

Rigorous research has been done on optical character recognition (OCR) and a large number of articles have been published on this topic during the last few decades. OCR plays a vital role in Digital Image Processing and Pattern Recognition. Numerous work has stated for Roman, Chinese, Japanese and Arabic scripts. There is no convenient work done on Indian script recognition. In India, more than...

This paper presents a Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) to identify the script of handwritten words of Roman, Devanagari, Kannada and Telugu scripts. It emphasizes the significance of directional energies for identification of script of the word. It is robust to varied image sizes and different styles of writing. A GMM is modeled using a set of six novel features derived from directional energy dist...

Received Jun 12, 2016 Revised Aug 18, 2016 Accepted Aug 29, 2016 Script writing art in the lives of Balinese people has a very important function, particularly in terms of writing a sacred script such as writing an inscription on copper plate, bronze, silver, and gold, by using a penknife which required a persistence, patience, skill and experience by itself, since not all Balinese people is ab...

These experiments investigate people’s knowledge of routine activities (e.g., eating in a restaurant, visiting a dentist) and how that knowledge is organized and used to understand and remember narrative texts. We use the term script to refer to these action stereotypes. Two studies collected script norms: people described what goes on in detail during familiar activities. They largely agreed o...

This paper presents work on document retrieval based on participation in the Cross-Language Evaluation Forum (CLEF) 2001 task of non-English monolingual retrieval task using French only. In summary, the experiment findings indicate that Okapi, the text retrieval system in use, can successfully be used for non-English text retrieval although a lot of internal pre-processing is required in the ba...

We discuss the effects of particle-vibration coupling on the shell structure of nuclei near the neutron drip line by choosing, as examples, 10Be and 24O cores. In particular, we calculate the energy shifts of single-particle neutron states induced by the interaction with collective modes. In the case of the 10Be core, the coupling to 2+ states is responsible, within our model, of narrowing the ...

In this work we use a previously published approach for script line identification of handwritten whiteboard notes in order to perform skew correction and size normalization of the script trajectory. Arbitrary assignments of sample points to certain script lines are hypothesized and described in a trellis. The normalization is performed by equalizing the script lines and warping the script traj...
