This paper proposes a method to accelerate character recognition of a large character set by employing pivots into the search space. We divide the feature space of character categ...
Using a lexicon can often improve character recognition under challenging conditions, such as poor image quality or unusual fonts. We propose a flexible probabilistic model for c...

This paper proposes an algorithm for recognizing Chinese characters in many diverse fonts including Song, Fang, Kai, Hei, Yuan, Lishu, Weibei, and Xingkai. The algorithm is based ...
In this paper a robust multifont character recognition system for degraded documents such as photocopy or fax is described. The system is based on Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) usin...
Unlike English, where unfamiliar words can be queried for its meaning by typing out its letters, the analogous operation in Chinese is far from trivial due to the nature of its wr...
