When recognizing multiple fonts, geometric features, such as the directional information of strokes, are generally robust against deformation but are weak against degradation. Thi...
This article focusses on the problems of feature extraction and the recognition of handwritten digits. A trainable feature extractor based on the LeNet5 convolutional neural netwo...
This paper presents a genetic programming based approach for optimizing the feature extraction step of a handwritten character recognizer. This recognizer uses a simple multilayer ...
Amharic is the official language of Ethiopia and uses Ethiopic script for writing. In this paper, we present writer-independent HMM-based Amharic word recognition for offline hand...
Analysis of allographs (characters) and allograph combinations (words) is the key for the identification/verification of a writer's handwriting. While allographs are usually ...
