Foreground-Background Segmentation of OCR Labels by a Single Layer Recurrent Neural Network

نویسنده

  • Lee F. Holeva
چکیده

Optical character recognition (OCR) algorithms typically start from a binary label image. The need for a binary image is complicated by the fact that most imaging devices usually produce multiply valued data, a grey scale image. The problem then becomes how to extract the meaningful character data from the grey scale image. Image artifacts such as dirt, variations in background intensity, and imaging noise complicate the character extraction.

Foreground-Background Segmentation by Cellular Neural Networks

A common procedure in digital postproduction is rotoscoping, the segmentation of independently moving foreground elements from background in a sequence of images. Still often carried out manually, rotoscoping is time-consuming and requires great skill in determining the boundary between foreground and background. Errors lead to a bubbling artefact in the final composited sequence. The industry ...

A Recurrent Neural Network Model for solving CCR Model in Data Envelopment Analysis

In this paper, we present a recurrent neural network model for solving CCR Model in Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). The proposed neural network model is derived from an unconstrained minimization problem. In the theoretical aspect, it is shown that the proposed neural network is stable in the sense of Lyapunov and globally convergent to the optimal solution of CCR model. The proposed model has...
