Automatic handwriting recognition and writer matching on anthrax-related handwritten mail
نویسندگان
چکیده
A handwriting recognition technique and a handwriting identification technique were combined and applied on anthrax-related handwritten mail. HWAI (Handwritten Address Interpretation) system interprets the address on the anthrax-related letters. The HWAI process can be modified to provide specific alphabet images which can then be used for writer identification. Micro-level feature values from segmented characters were extracted and an identification test was conducted. Preliminary results based on automatic handwriting recognition and identification are shown.

متن کاملAllograph Based Writer Adaptation for Handwritten Character Recognition
Writer adaptation is the process of converting a generic (writer-independent) handwriting recognizer into a personalized (writer-dependent) recognizer with improved accuracy for a particular user. While training the generic recognizer uses large amounts of data from several writers, the adaptation process uses only a few samples from a single user. In this paper we present a) an automatic appro...

A writer independent handwriting recognition system must be able to recognize a wide variety of handwriting styles, while attempting to obtain a high degree of recognition accuracy. As the number of writing styles increases, so does the variability of data distribution. We describe here a template-based system using a string matching distance measure of linear time complexity for the recognitio...
متن کاملMapping Transcripts to Handwritten Text
In the analysis and recognition of handwriting, a useful first task is to assign ground truth for words in the writing. Such an assignment is useful for various subsequent machine learning tasks for performing automatic recognition, writer verification, etc. Since automatic word segmentation and recognition can be error prone, an intermediate approach is to use a text file that is a transcripti...
