Handwritten Mathematical Symbol Classification Using Layout Context
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new descriptor, layout context, is introduced to describe the distribution of the surrounding symbols’ positions relative to a target mathematical symbol within a mathematical expression. Using this new descriptor, a coarse classification is performed in which all mathematical symbols are classified into eight classes[3] as shown in Figure 1. These classes represent different centroid locations and surrounding regions associated with a symbol.

Identifying Layout Classes for Mathematical Symbols Using Layout Context
We describe a symbol classification technique for identifying the expected locations of neighboring symbols in mathematical expressions. We use the seven symbol layout classes of the DRACULAEmath notation parser (Zanibbi, Blostein, and Cordy, 2002) to represent expected locations for neighboring symbols: Ascender, Descender, Centered, Open Bracket, Non-Script, Variable Range (e.g. integrals) an...
متن کاملRecognition of On-line Handwritten Mathematical Expressions Using a Minimum Spanning Tree Construction and Symbol Dominance
We present a structural analysis method for the recognition of on-line handwritten mathematical expressions based on a minimum spanning tree construction and symbol dominance. The method handles some layout irregularities frequently found in on-line handwritten formula recognition systems, like symbol overlapping and association of arguments of sum-like operators. It also handles arguments of o...
متن کاملRecognition of Online Handwritten Math Symbols using Density Features
We explore the application of shape context features and 2D histograms for recognition of handwritten math symbols. Density features are used to extract the contextual information from the shape of the symbol. Both, the shape context feature and 2D histograms are implemented using three different strategiesCounting points, Parzen windows and Inverse distance. Using the dataset from the Competit...
متن کاملReal-time Structural Analysis of Handwritten Mathematical Formulas by Probabilistic Context-free Geometry Modelling
Robust structural analysis techniques are crucial for the recognition of handwritten mathematical formulas. Therefore we integrated a novel probabilistic structural classification module into a single-stage semantic decoder, recursively taking relative symbol (or symbol group) positions and sizes into account. On the basis of Gaussian, statistically independent distributions for the resulting f...
متن کاملOn-Line Recognition of Handwritten Mathematical Expressions Based on Stroke-Based Stochastic Context-Free Grammar
In this paper, we propose a new framework for online handwritten mathematical expression recognition. In this approach, we consider handwritten mathematical expressions as the output of stroke generation processes based on a stochastic context-free grammar which generates handwritten expressions stochastically. We estimate the most likely expression candidate derived from the grammar, rather th...
