handwritten digit recognition can be categorized as a classification problem. probabilistic neural network (pnn) is one of the most effective and useful classifiers, which works based on bayesian rule. in this paper, in order to recognize persian (farsi) handwritten digit recognition, a combination of intelligent clustering method and pnn has been utilized. hoda database, which includes 80000 p...

This paper presents the results of Persian handwritten word recognition based on Mixture of Experts technique. In the basic form of ME the problem space is automatically divided into several subspaces for the experts, and the outputs of experts are combined by a gating network. In our proposed model, we used Mixture of Experts Multi Layered Perceptrons with Momentum term, in the classification ...

Despite the growing growth of technology, handwritten signature has been selected as the first option between biometrics by users. In this paper, a new methodology for offline handwritten signature verification and recognition based on the Shearlet transform and transfer learning is proposed. Since, a large percentage of handwritten signatures are composed of curves and the performance of a sig...

Handwritten characters are seen everywhere in our day-to-day life. Almost all the things we do involve letters, from writing cheques to notes manually. character recognition is considered as a core diversity of emerging application by using concepts machine learning. It used widely for performing practical applications such reading computerized bank cheques. However, executing system carry out ...

The encoding of local features is an essential part for writer identification and writer retrieval. While CNN activations have already been used as local features in related works, the encoding of these features has attracted little attention so far. In this work, we compare the established VLAD encoding with triangulation embedding. We further investigate generalized max pooling as an alternat...
