In this paper, we propose a new prototype learning/matching method that can be combined with support vector machines (SVM) in pattern recognition. This hybrid method has the follo...
We aim to improve the accuracy of handwritten Chinese character recognition using two advanced techniques: discriminative feature extraction (DFE) and discriminative learning quad...
A new method of skeletonisation (stroke extraction) of handwritten character images is presented. The method has been designed to extract the skeleton which is very close to human...

Existing skeletonization methods operate directly on the binary image ignoring the gray-level information. In this paper we propose a new method for the skeletonization of handwri...
Meshing is a popular technology for feature extraction in handwritten Chinese character recognition. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical overlapped elastic meshing (HOEM), wh...
