One of the most arduous and captivating domains under image processing is handwritten character recognition. In this paper we have proposed a feature extraction technique which is a combination of unique features of geometric, zone-based…
Generating synthetic images of handwritten text in a writer-specific style is a challenging task, especially in the case of unseen styles and new words, and even more when these latter contain characters that are rarely encountered during…
This paper introduces an agent-centric approach to handle novelty in the visual recognition domain of handwriting recognition (HWR). An ideal transcription agent would rival or surpass human perception, being able to recognize known and new…
We present Charagram embeddings, a simple approach for learning character-based compositional models to embed textual sequences. A word or sentence is represented using a character n-gram count vector, followed by a single nonlinear…
Understanding a scene by decoding the visual relationships depicted in an image has been a long studied problem. While the recent advances in deep learning and the usage of deep neural networks have achieved near human accuracy on many…
Online handwritten character recognition leverages stroke order and dynamic features, which generally provide higher accuracy and robustness compared with offline recognition. However, in practical applications, rotational deformations can…
