This paper presents a precise system for handwritten Chinese and Japanese character
recognition. Before extracting directional element feature (DEF) from each character image …

The holistic paradigm in HWR has been applied to recognition scenarios involving small,
static lexicons, such as the check amount recognition task. In this paper, we explore the …

This paper describes a new online handwritten character recognition system which is
composed of coarse classification, linear-time elastic matching, structured character pattern …

In this paper, a new algorithm for selection of candidates for handwritten character
recognition is presented. Since we adopt the concept of the marginal radius to examine the …

We describe the application of the LDA method (learning by discriminant analysis) to
handwritten Kanji recognition. In the LDA method, the discriminant function obtained by …

In this paper, a systematic method is described that constructs an efficient and a robust
coarse classifier from a large number of basic recognizers obtained by different parameters …

For many pattern recognition methods, high recognition accuracy is obtained at very high
expense of computational cost. In this paper, a new algorithm that reduces the …

Handwritten character pattern recognition methods are generally divided into two types:
online recognition and offline recognition [1]. Online recognition recognizes character …

In classifier combination, the degree of recognition accuracy improvement depends not only
on how classifiers are combined, but also on how much they complement each other. From …

This paper describes Fujitsu's latest interactive (ie, online) handwriting character recognition
(OLCR) technology. To compensate for stroke order and stroke connection variations of …
