ON THREE HANDWRITTEN LETTERS FROM ROBBE-GRILLET TO JOSÉ MARÍA FERNÁNDEZ CARDO Notas a cartas manuscritas À propos des lettres manuscrites

For many years, speech has been the most natural and efficient means of information exchange for human beings. With the advancement of technology and the prevalence of computer usage, the design and production of speech recognition systems have been considered by researchers. Among this, lip-reading techniques encountered with many challenges for speech recognition, that one of the challenges b...

This study examines the impact of the crosslinguistic similarity of translation equivalents on word recognition by Russian-English bilinguals, who are fluent in languages with two different but partially overlapping writing systems. Current models for bilingual word recognition, like BIA+, hold that all words that are similar to the input letter string are activated and considered for selection...

Recognition of Arabic-like scripts such as Persian and Urdu is more challenging than Latin-based scripts. This due to the presence a two-dimensional structure, context-dependent character shapes, spaces overlaps, placement diacritics. We present an attention based encoder-decoder model that learns read handwritten text in context. A novel localization penalty introduced encourage attend only on...

Questioned document examination is extensively used by forensic specialists for criminal identification. This paper presents a writer recognition system based on contour features operating in identification mode (one-to-many) and working at the level of isolated characters. Individual characters of a writer are manually segmented and labeled by an expert as pertaining to one of 62 alphanumeric ...

Biometric recognition systems use measures from the body itself to determine the identity of an individual. The electrocardiogram (ECG) has been increasingly used as a biometric measure for person identification, as it is an easily measurable characteristic of all individuals. Our method for ECG acquisition follows an off-the-person approach, using a single ECG lead with non-gelled electrodes p...
