Hidden Markov models offer a framework for decoding a stream of text in terms of the most likely sequence of causal states. Prior work with HMM has relied on observation of features that are correlated with underlying characters, without modeling them directly. This paper proposes to use the results of inkball-based character matching as a feature set input directly to the HMM. Experiments indicate that this technique outperforms other tested methods at handwritten word recognition on a common benchmark when applied without normalization or text deslanting.","PeriodicalId":194844,"journal":{"name":"2016 15th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition (ICFHR)","volume":"1 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":"131208108","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 customary, ground truth based methodology, used in the literature is shown to be problematic due to its subjective nature. Several previously suggested alternatives are surveyed and are also found to be inadequate in certain scenarios. A new approach, quantifying the adherence of a binarization to its document image is proposed and tested using six different measures of accuracy. The measures are evaluated experimentally based on datasets from DIBCO and H-DIBCO competitions, with respect to different kinds of binarization degradations.","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":"124420704","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 conventional recurrent neural network model obtains the local context from limited directions, whereas we build up the multi-directional long short-term memory (MDirLSTM) module to abstract contextual information in various directions. Moreover, we develop a shortcut connection strategy in our proposed architecture for faster yet better convergence. In cooperation with the aforementioned methods, the proposed architecture also benefits from the following properties: (1) it obtains informative features of the input directly without involving hand-crafted features and segmentation, and (2) it is an end-to-end trainable model whose components are trained conjointly. We evaluate the performance of the proposed method on two databases: IAM words and IRONOFF. Our experimental results demonstrate a significant increase in recognition performance using MDirLSTM and shortcut connections, which suggests the effectiveness of these two proposed methods.","PeriodicalId":194844,"journal":{"name":"2016 15th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition (ICFHR)","volume":"1 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":"130425119","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}

For handwritten character recognition, the CNN is used the most. In order to improve the performance of CNN, many new models have been proposed and in which the relaxation CNN [35] is widely used. The relaxation CNN has more complicated structure than CNN while the recognition time is the same with which. However, the training of relaxation CNN needs much more time than CNN. In this paper, we propose the cascading training for relaxation CNN. Our method can train a relaxation CNN of better performance while using almost the same training time with normal CNN. The experimental results proved that the relaxation CNN trained by cascading training is able to achieve the state-of-the-art performance on handwritten Chinese character recognition.","PeriodicalId":194844,"journal":{"name":"2016 15th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition (ICFHR)","volume":"62 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":"129010095","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 proposed solution aims at rebuilding a 2D expression from several 1D labeled paths. An online math expression is a sequence of strokes which is later used to build a graph considering both temporal and spatial orders among these strokes. In this graph, node corresponds to stroke and edge denotes the relationship between a pair of strokes. Next, we select 1D paths from the built graph with the expectation that these paths could catch all the strokes and the relationships between pairs of strokes. As an advanced and strong sequence classifier, BLSTM networks are adopted to label the selected 1D paths. We set different weights to these 1D labeled paths and then merge them to rebuild a label graph. After that, an additional post-process will be performed to complete the edges automatically. We test the proposed solution and compare the results to the state of art in online math expression recognition domain.","PeriodicalId":194844,"journal":{"name":"2016 15th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition (ICFHR)","volume":"278 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":"115898724","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}

Also, our MST-based parser obtains higher formula structure and expression rates than published techniques using CYK parsing when starting from valid symbols. This parsing technique could be extended to include n-grams or other language constraints, and might be used for other notations.","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":"133552755","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 database consists of 150 annotated pages of three different medieval manuscripts with challenging layouts. Furthermore, we provide a layout analysis ground-truth which has been iterated on, reviewed, and refined by an expert in medieval studies. DIVA-HisDB and the ground truth can be used for training and evaluating DIA tasks, such as layout analysis, text line segmentation, binarization and writer identification. Layout analysis results of several representative baseline technologies are also presented in order to help researchers evaluate their methods and advance the frontiers of complex historical manuscripts analysis. An optimized state-of-the-art Convolutional Auto-Encoder (CAE) performs with around 95% accuracy, demonstrating that for this challenging layout there is much room for improvement. Finally, we show that existing text line segmentation methods fail due to interlinear and marginal text elements.","PeriodicalId":194844,"journal":{"name":"2016 15th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition (ICFHR)","volume":"7 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":"132617450","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 resulting local cues are subsequently aggregated to form word-level fixed-length descriptors. Encoding is computationally inexpensive and does not require learning a separate feature generative model, in contrast to other widely used encoding methods (such as Fisher Vectors). Keyword spotting trials on machine-printed and handwritten documents show that the proposed model gives very competitive results.","PeriodicalId":194844,"journal":{"name":"2016 15th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition (ICFHR)","volume":"7 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":"114433860","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}

Relying on analytical approach, it proceeds with explicit segmentation of words into graphemes. Different combination strategies are compared including sum, product, Borda count and Dempster-Shafer rules.
