Character Recognition Using Mathematical Morphology

چکیده
We describe our partially completed work on a set of morphological algorithms for recognizing handwritten numerals. The basic morphological operations { dilation, erosion, opening and closing { are used to extract characteristic features of these characters and check for their appropriate topological con guration. The paper describes the key shape characterization for two groups containing a total of the six numerals on which we have so far worked and give the morphological algorithms for their recognition.

Text Extraction and Character Recognition form Image using Mathematical Morphology and OCR Technique
Images contain various types of useful information that should be extracted whenever required and this information may be in the form of text present in image. Extraction of this information involves detection, localization, extraction, enhancement and recognition of the text from the given image. Mathematical morphology is the foundation of morphological image processing, which consists of a s...

In a former work, we built a VLP (Vehicle License Plates) reader using computer vision. To test other methods, we decided to implement a whole new system from scratch. In this communication, we summarize the methods that we have tested and the results we have obtained. Plate location is based on mathematical morphology and character recognition is implemented using Hausdorff distance. Results a...

Vehicle License Plate Detection (LPD) is an important step for the vehicle plate recognition which can be used in the intelligent transport systems. Many methods have been proposed for the detection of license plates based on: Mathematical morphology, Discrete Wavelet Transform, Hough Transform and others. In general, an LPR system includes four main parts: Vehicle image acquisition, license pl...
متن کاملCharacter Extraction from Gray Images Based on Mathematical Morphology
A morphology-based thresholding technique for character extraction from outdoor images is developed. Such extraction is traditionally difficult because of the influence of illumination changes, such as lightness, shadow, and reflection. Changes in character font, apparent size, and inclination also make extraction more difficult. Though there are some character reading systems for format and si...
