Directional features have been successfully used for the recognition of both machine-printed and handwritten Kanji characters for the last decade. This paper attempts to explain w...
Distorted character recognition is a difficult but inevitable problem in hand-printed character recognition. In this paper, we propose a character recognition method using elastic...
We combine information from a language model and character image pattern matching to iteratively reduce ambiguity in document images. Combining word shape information and lists of...
In order to realize accurate camera-based character recognition, machine-readable class information is embedded into each character image. Specifically, each character image is pr...
Recognition of variously deformed character patterns is a salient subject for off-line hand-printed character recognition. Sufficient recognition performance for practical use has...
