Handwriting recognition is one of the active and challenging areas of research in the field of image processing and pattern recognition. It has many applications that include: a reading aid for visual impairment, automated reading and…
Offline handwriting recognition (HWR) has improved significantly with the advent of deep learning architectures in recent years. Nevertheless, it remains a challenging problem and practical applications often rely on post-processing…
The connected allograph representing calligraphic Arabic word does not appear individually in any calligraphic resource but in association with other letters all adapted to each other. The graphic segmentation of the word by respecting…
The method of wavefront shaping to control optical properties of opaque media is a promising technique for authentication applications. One of the main challenges of this technique is the sensitivity of the wavefront-sample coupling to…
We study the performance of Arabic text classification combining various techniques: (a) tfidf vs. dependency syntax, for feature selection and weighting; (b) class association rules vs. support vector machines, for classification. The…
All wavelets can be associated to a multiresolution like structure, i.e. an incr easing sequence of subspaces of L^2(R). We consider the interaction of a wavel et and the translation operator in terms of which of the subspaces in this multi…
Scattering transforms are non-trainable deep convolutional architectures that exploit the multi-scale resolution of a wavelet filter bank to obtain an appropriate representation of data. More importantly, they are proven invariant to…
Despite its significance, Arabic, a linguistically rich and morphologically complex language, faces the challenge of being under-resourced. The scarcity of large annotated datasets hampers the development of accurate tools for subjectivity…
In this paper, we present a methodology for off-line handwritten character recognition. The proposed methodology relies on a new feature extraction technique based on structural characteristics, histograms and profiles. As novelty, we…
We identify two seemingly disparate structures: supercharacters, a useful way of doing Fourier analysis on the group of unipotent uppertriangular matrices with coefficients in a finite field, and the ring of symmetric functions in…
In this paper, we introduce Gabor shearlets, a variant of shearlet systems, which are based on a different group representation than previous shearlet constructions: they combine elements from Gabor and wavelet frames in their construction.…
Feature curves are largely adopted to highlight shape features, such as sharp lines, or to divide surfaces into meaningful segments, like convex or concave regions. Extracting these curves is not sufficient to convey prominent and…
Geometrical invariance, in particular affine invariance, has been recently proposed as an important principle underlying the production of hand movements. However, tests of affine invariance have traditionally been applied to the…
The translation operator $T^A$ associated with the special affine Fourier transform (SAFT) $\mathscr{F}_A$ is introduced from harmonic analysis point of view. The analogues of Wendel's theorem, Wiener theorem, Weiner-Tauberian theorem and…
This note is a very basic introduction to wavelets. It starts with an orthogonal basis of piecewise constant functions, constructed by dilation and translation. The ``wavelet transform'' maps each $f(x)$ to its coefficients with respect to…
In haptic object discrimination, the effect of gripper embodiment, action parameters, and sensory channels has not been systematically studied. We used two anthropomorphic hands and two 2-finger grippers to grasp two sets of deformable…
On a cyclic group of prime order, the non-trivial Dirichlet characters together with their Fourier transforms have constant modulus outside 0 and vanish at 0. Answering a question of H. Cohn, we construct new functions with these…
Arabic is a Semitic language which is widely spoken with many dialects. Given the success of pre-trained language models, many transformer models trained on Arabic and its dialects have surfaced. While there have been an extrinsic…
Handwritten Text Recognition (HTR) remains a challenging problem to date, largely due to the varying writing styles that exist amongst us. Prior works however generally operate with the assumption that there is a limited number of styles,…
A gauge invariant reformulation of nonrelativistic fermions in background magnetic fields is used to obtain the Laughlin and Jain wave functions as exact results in Mean Field Theory (MFT). The gauge invariant framework trades the U(1)…
