A new way to detect arrows in line drawings is proposed in this paper. Our approach is based on the definition of the structure of such a symbol. Signatures of angular areas are ...
In this paper, we propose a directional wavelet approach to remove images of interfering strokes coming from the back of a historical handwritten document due to seeping of ink du...
This paper addresses the problem of to what extent linear transformation can alleviate nonlinear distortion. We investigate a technique of global affine transformation (GAT) corre...
An automatic recognition of online handwritten text has been an on-going research problem for nearly four decades. It has been gaining more interest due to the increasing populari...
The purpose of this paper is to present a novel contour code feature in conjunction with a rule based segmentation for cursive handwriting recognition. A heuristic segmentation al...
In style-constrained classification often there are only a few samples of each style and class, and the correspondences between styles in the training set and the test set are un...
A perturbation model for generating synthetic textlines from existing cursively handwritten lines of text produced by human writers is presented. Our purpose is to improve the per...
In this paper we describe an application of OCR techniques to quality control in industrial production. The purpose of the system is to verify the correct printing of numerical in...
This paper deals with an off-line Japanese signature verification using a pattern matching method. An annoying problem encountered in off-line signature verification using a patte...
For handwritten character recognition, a new elastic image matching (EM) technique based on a class-dependent deformation model is proposed. In the deformation model, any deformat...
