A two-stage system for meter value recognition
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes a two-stage system for the recognition of postage meter values. A feed-forward Neural Abstraction Pyramid is initialized in an unsupervised manner and trained in a supervised fashion to classify an entire digit block. It does not need prior digit segmentation. If the block recognition is not confident enough, a second stage tries to recognize single digits, taking into account the block classifier output for a neighboring digit as context. The system is evaluated on a large database. It can recognize meter values that are hard to read for humans.

متن کاملDisguised Face Recognition by Using Local Phase Quantization and Singular Value Decomposition
Disguised face recognition is a major challenge in the field of face recognition which has been taken less attention. Therefore, in this paper a disguised face recognition algorithm based on Local Phase Quantization (LPQ) method and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) is presented which deals with two main challenges. The first challenge is when an individual intentionally alters the appearance ...

In this study, recognition rates of consonants available in vowel-consonant-vowel structure in hearing tests and two microscopic models will be investigated. Such a syllable structure doesn’t exist in Farsi and Azerbaijani languages, but since the goal is only recognition of middle phoneme, according to hearing tests, listeners are able to properly recognize phonemes in clean speech conditions....
