In this paper we propose graph similarity features as a novel descriptor for handwriting recognition in historical documents based on Hidden Markov Models. Using a structural graph-based representation of text images, a sequence of graph similarity features is extracted by means of dissimilarity embedding with respect to a set of character prototypes. On the medieval Parzival data set it is demonstrated that the proposed structural descriptor significantly outperforms two well-known statistical reference descriptors for single word recognition.","PeriodicalId":335044,"journal":{"name":"2010 12th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition","volume":"544 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133488194","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}

In the first stage, similar shaped characters are categorized into groups and as a result, 8 groups are obtained from 32 Persian basic characters. In the second stage, the groups containing more than one similar shape characters are considered further for the final recognition. Feature extraction is based on under sampled bitmaps technique and modified chain-code direction frequencies. For the first stage features, we compute 49-dimension features based on under sampled bitmaps from 49 non-overlapping 7×7 window-maps. 196-dimension chain-code direction frequencies from 49 overlapping 9×9 window-maps are computed and used as features for the second stage of the proposed scheme. Classifiers are one-against-other support vector machines (SVM). We evaluated our scheme on a standard dataset of Persian handwritten characters. Using 36682 samples for training, we tested our scheme on other 15338 samples and obtained 98.10% and 96.68% correct recognition rates when considered 8-class and 32-class problems, respectively.","PeriodicalId":335044,"journal":{"name":"2010 12th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134322925","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}

These perturbations are parameterized allowing for varying levels of handwritten word complexity. We then use the output from the modified synthetic handwriting generator as the foreground for the mixed-text CAPTCHA. Experiments show that the proposed approach is effective at successfully distinguishing between humans and machines.

For Arabic handwritten, the conventional methods which extract baseline as straight line are ill-suited because some Arabic words may be contracted from two or more sub-words (PAWs), and the distribution of these sub-words can produce different slant angles within the same word. Focused on the source of the problem, we propose a novel Arabic baseline estimation algorithm in which the PAW level is the real basic block to be processed rather than word level. Experimental results using IFN/ENIT [1] database demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.","PeriodicalId":335044,"journal":{"name":"2010 12th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123823294","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 similarity between a text word and handwriting is obtained by combining the character similiarity scores given by a character classifier. To overcome the ambiguity of character segmentation, multiple candidates of character patterns are generated by over-segmentation, and sequences of candidate characters are matched with the query word in beam search. The character classifier is trained by one-vs-all strategy so that it gives high similarity to the target class and low scores to the others. Particularly, we use a one-vs-all trained prototype classifier and a support vector machine (SVM) classifier for similarity scoring. The method yielded promising performance in experiments on a database containing 550 pages of 110 writers. For words of four characters, the recall, precision and F measure are 87.25%, 94.84% and 90.88%, respectively.","PeriodicalId":335044,"journal":{"name":"2010 12th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124953214","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}

They contain textual elements such as insertions, annotations, and corrections. They may be richly decorated with ornaments, illustrations, and decorative initials making their layout even more complex. In this paper we describe a semi-automatic tool which annotates medieval manuscripts using our generic format. This format allows to represent the physical structure of such manuscripts. Our semi-automatic tool is composed of two parts. The first part achieves a layout analysis which automatically segments manuscripts into text blocks and text lines. That is, a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) identifies layout elements by using color features, it extracts the textual content image of the manuscript. Then, a segmentation based on Connected Component (CC) is performed on the textual content in order to retrieve text blocks and lines. The second part provides an interactive interface allowing the user to customize the automatic analysis, to visualize its results, and to correct them. Our tool is still a prototype, nevertheless, first experiments give encouraging results. Thus, in this paper, we show how to generate a ground truth for medieval manuscripts layouts.","PeriodicalId":335044,"journal":{"name":"2010 12th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition","volume":"393 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129195259","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}

However, the recognition performance has been limited by the small number of string samples. In this paper, we explore two techniques to improve the performance. First, Delta features are added to the static ones for alleviating the conditional independence assumption of HMMs. We then investigate into techniques for synthesizing string samples from isolated character images. We show that synthesizing linguistically natural string samples utilizes isolated samples insufficiently. Instead, we draw character samples without replacement and concatenate them into string images through between-character gaps. Our experimental results demonstrate that both Delta features and synthesized string samples significantly improve the recognition performance. Combining these with a bigram language model, the recognition accuracy has been increased by 36-38% compared to our previous system.","PeriodicalId":335044,"journal":{"name":"2010 12th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121542799","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}
