One feasible solution is through the over-segmentation strategy which maintains a high recall of correct cuts between adjacent characters and a moderate level of redundant cuts within a single character. Previous redundant cut filtering methods rely on either pure heuristics or learned geometric properties of correct cuts. In this work, we extend learning based cut filtering method from single cut level to cut sequence level by Hidden Markov Model (HMM). As a stochastic sequential modeling tool, HMM can utilize not only properties of individual cuts but also the left-to-right temporal context and spatial dependencies among a sequence of neighboring cuts. The experimental results on a large touching character dataset show that the proposed method is effective for over-segmentation and gives better performance than previous methods.","PeriodicalId":194844,"journal":{"name":"2016 15th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition (ICFHR)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115255799","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The existing approaches can only deal with very simple handwritten scores mainly because of the variability in the handwriting style and the variability in the composition of groups of music notes (i.e. compound music notes).

Our method has been tested using several handwritten music scores of the CVC-MUSCIMA database and compared with a commercial Optical Music Recognition (OMR) software.

First approach uses feature extraction from whole stroke without local zone division after segmenting the word into its basic strokes. Whereas, other two approaches consider the segmentation of a word into its basic strokes and a local zone wise analysis of each online stroke. Among these two zone wise local features, one takes into account structural and directional features and other uses dominant points, detected from strokes using slope angles, to find the local features. These features are studied in HMM-based word recognition platform. From the comparative study of the word recognition results, we have noted that dominant point based local feature extraction provides best accuracies for both Bengali and Devanagari scripts. We have obtained 90.23% and 93.82% accuracies for Bengali and Devanagari scripts respectively.","PeriodicalId":194844,"journal":{"name":"2016 15th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition (ICFHR)","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129726568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Handwriting features can be extracted from different methods. Therefore, the multi-feature sets are irrelevant and redundant. The conflict of the features exists in the sets, which affects the accuracy of classification and the computing cost. This paper proposes a Mutual Information (MI) approach, that focuses on feature selection. The approach can decrease redundancies and conflicts. In addition, it extracts an optimal subset of features from the writing samples produced by male and female writers. The classification is carried out using a Support Vector Machine (SVM) on two databases. The first database comes from the ICDAR 2013 competition on gender prediction, the other database contains the Registration-Document-Form (RDF) database in Chinese. The proposed and compared methods were evaluated on both databases. Results from the methods highlight the importance of feature selection for gender prediction from handwriting.","PeriodicalId":194844,"journal":{"name":"2016 15th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition (ICFHR)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132407002","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The correlation between gender and the visual appearance of handwriting has been validated by a number of studies and the present study is based on the same idea. We exploit the textural measurements as the discriminating attribute between male and female writings. The textural information in a writing is captured by applying a bank of Gabor filters to the image of handwriting. The mean and standard deviation values of the filter responses are collected in matrix and the Fourier transform of the matrix is used as a feature. Classification is carried out using a feed forward neural network.

The proposed method first uses the connected component analysis and local features to segment the printed text and signatures. Secondly, it uses spectral response of text, signature, and background to extract signature pixels. The proposed method is robust, and remains unaffected by color and intensity of the ink, and by any structural information of the text, as the classification relies exclusively on the spectral response of the document. The proposed method can extract signature pixels either overlapping or non-overlapping from different backgrounds like, logos, tables, stamps, and printed text. We used high-resolution hyper-spectral imaging to study and classify 300 documents with varying backgrounds. We evaluated the proposed classification method and compared results with the state-of-the art system. The proposed method outperformed the state-of-the-art system and achieved 100% precision and 84% recall.","PeriodicalId":194844,"journal":{"name":"2016 15th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition (ICFHR)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134644952","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Targeting typically large images in document image analysis, we propose a new model using weight sharing over local blocks. We compare two strategies: directly predicting the four coordinates or predicting lower-left and upper-right points separately followed by matching.

Jurie","doi":"10.1109/ICFHR.2016.0075","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ICFHR.2016.0075","url":null,"abstract":"Pattern spotting consists in searching in a document image for the occurrences of a queried graphical object. The main challenge in pattern spotting is that the query image is generally small and the occurrences may be located at any random places in the image. Rather than exhaustively indexing all possible subwindows extracted from the document images, the common way is to rely on a segmentation or a document layout analysis to limit the search space. However, there is no segmentation nor document layout analysis technique reliable enough for historical document images. Region proposal, a technique used to generate a set of regions potentially containing an object, has contributed to many state of the art object detection systems recently. Although it is initially proposed for object detection, we will show that region proposal also offers promising results for document images, particularly in the case of pattern spotting. In this paper, we aim at investigating the use of region proposal to produce high quality subwindows to replace the usual document layout analysis step and the blind sliding windowing step. From experiments conducted on the DocExplore dataset, we show that region proposal generates a comparable number of subwindows while helping the system to achieve significant better results than the system built with commonly used layout analysis techniques.","PeriodicalId":194844,"journal":{"name":"2016 15th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition (ICFHR)","volume":"2009 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125628033","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
