We have proposed a complete system for text detection and localization in gray scale scene images. A boosting framework integrating feature and weak classifier selection based on...
This paper proposes a novel hybrid method to robustly and accurately localize texts in natural scene images. A text region detector is designed to generate a text confidence map,...
Recent work has shown that certain handwriting biometrics are susceptible to forgery attacks, both human- and machine-based. In this paper, we examine a new scheme for using handw...
In this paper, a new efficient word spotting methodology is presented that can be applied to historical printed documents without requiring any previous block or word segmentation...
We describe the results of large-scale experiments with algorithms for unsupervised improvement of recognition of book-images using fully automatic mutual-entropy-based model adap...
This paper presents a new algorithm for fusioning images of text-documents taken with different exposures. It is compared to several standard block oriented exposure- and focus-bl...

We propose an efficient method to recognize multi-stroke handwritten symbols. The method is based on computing the truncated Legendre-Sobolev expansions of the coordinate functio...
With rejection strategies in a handwriting recognition system, we are able to improve the reliability and accuracy of the recognized characters. In this paper, we propose several ...

In this paper, we propose a novel technique to segment handwritten document images into text lines by shredding their surface with local minima tracers. Our approach is based on t...
