Sub-character HMM models for Arabic text recognition allow sharing of common patterns between different position-dependent shape forms of an Arabic character as well as between different characters. The number of HMMs gets reduced considerably while still capturing the variations in shape patterns. This results in a compact, efficient, and robust recognizer with reduced model set. In the current paper...
Training recognizers for handwritten characters is still a very time consuming task involving tremendous amounts of manual annotations by experts. In this paper we present semi-supervised labeling strategies that are able to considerably reduce the human effort. We propose two different methods to label and later recognize characters in collections of historical archive documents. The first one is...
Hidden Markov Model (HMM) is one of the most widely used classifier for text recognition. In this paper we are presenting novel sub-character HMM models for Arabic text recognition. Modeling at sub-character level allows sharing of common patterns between different contextual forms of Arabic characters as well as between different characters. The number of HMMs gets reduced considerably while still...
Lampung Script is a non-cursive script where a rich set of diacritics is used to modify the syllable denoted by a character symbol. Consequently, the analysis of the relation between characters and diacritic marks associated with them plays an important role in the recognition process. As diacritics can appear in three different relative positions with respect to a character (top, bottom, and right)...
One of the major issues in handwritten character recognition is the efficient creation of ground truth to train and test the different recognizers. The manual labeling of the data by a human expert is a tedious and costly procedure. In this paper we propose an efficient and low-cost semi-automatic labeling system for character datasets. First, the data is represented in different abstraction levels,...
