Optical Font Recognition from Projection Profiles
نویسندگان
چکیده
• Recognition of logical document structures [1], where knowledge of the font used in a word, line, or text block may be useful for defining its logical label (chapter title, section title or paragraph). • Document reproduction, where knowledge of the font is necessary in order to reproduce (reprint) the document. • Document indexing and information retrieval, where word indexes are generally printed in fonts different from those of the running text. • Text font knowledge may also improve the recognition rate of OCR (Optical Character Recognition) systems, because we believe that mono-font OCR (OCR with an assumed known font) may give better results than omni-font OCR (OCR capable of recognizing characters of any font and size).

With the rapid development of optical character recognition (OCR), font categorization becomes more and more important. This is because font information has very wide usage and researchers came to know this point recently. In this paper, we propose a new scheme for Chinese character font categorization (CCFC), which applies LBP descriptor based Chinese character interesting points for represent...

Even if font usage plays an important role in Document Image Analysis (DIA), recognition systems generally take the concept of font management in a weaker sense than in the production cycle. With the point of view of the document recognition community, we show how typographic information (characters bitmap, metrics, etc.) can improve existing analysis methods. After a brief survey of font recog...
متن کاملFont Descriptor Construction for Printed Thai Character Recognition
The font evolution with various types is a great impact on a recognition performance of optical character recognition (OCR) systems. The more diversity of fonts leads to the less accuracy of recognition rate, particularly Thai-fonts. In order to overcome this obstacle, this paper proposes a font descriptor for printed Thai-character recognition. The role of such a descriptor is a representative...
