Cascade Markov random fields for stroke extraction of Chinese characters

Extracting perceptually meaningful strokes plays an essential role in modeling structures of handwritten Chinese characters for accurate character recognition. This paper proposes a cascade Markov random field (MRF) model that combines Preprint submitted to Elsevier 29 September 2009
