Word segmentation is a critical stage towards word and character recognition as well as word spotting and mainly concerns two basic aspects, distance computation and gap classific...
Class syntax can be used to 1) model temporal or locational evolvement of class labels of feature observation sequences, 2) correct classification errors of static classifiers if ...
The implementation of word spotting is not an easy procedure and it gets even worse in the case of historical documents since it requires character recognition and indexing of the...
Edit distance matching has been used in literature for word spotting with characters taken as primitives. The recognition rate however, is limited by the segmentation inconsistenci...
