Scene text erasing, which replaces text regions with reasonable content in natural images, has drawn significant attention in the computer vision community in recent years. There are two potential subtasks in scene text erasing: text…
Recognition of Handwritten Mathematical Expressions (HMEs) is a challenging problem because of the ambiguity and complexity of two-dimensional handwriting. Moreover, the lack of large training data is a serious issue, especially for…
Stroke fragmentation is one of the key steps in pen-based interaction. In this letter, we present a unified HMM-based stroke fragmentation technique that can do segment point location and primitive type determination simultaneously. The…
Scene text detection is still a challenging task, as there may be extremely small or low-resolution strokes, and close or arbitrary-shaped texts. In this paper, StrokeNet is proposed to effectively detect the texts by capturing the…
Detection and recognition of text from scans and other images, commonly denoted as Optical Character Recognition (OCR), is a widely used form of automated document processing with a number of methods available. Yet OCR systems still do not…
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) systems have been widely used in various applications for extracting semantic information from images. To give the user more control over their privacy, an on-device solution is needed. The current…
Extracting dense representations for terms and phrases is a task of great importance for knowledge discovery platforms targeting highly-technical fields. Dense representations are used as features for downstream components and have multiple…
Segmentation of handwritten document images into text lines and words is one of the most significant and challenging tasks in the development of a complete Optical Character Recognition (OCR) system. This paper addresses the automatic…
Analyzing a distributed computation is a hard problem in general due to the combinatorial explosion in the size of the state-space with the number of processes in the system. By abstracting the computation, unnecessary explorations can be…
