An Automatic Method for Video Character Segmentation
2008This paper presents an automatic segmentation system for characters in text color images cropped from natural images or videos based on a new neuronal architecture insuring fast processing and robustness against noise, variations in illumination, complex background and low resolution.

Printed Arabic optical character segmentation
SPIE Proceedings, 2015A considerable progress in recognition techniques for many non-Arabic characters has been achieved. In contrary, few efforts have been put on the research of Arabic characters. In any Optical Character Recognition (OCR) system the segmentation step is usually the essential stage in which an extensive portion of processing is devoted and a considerable ...

Touching character segmentation of Devanagari script
Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Computing Communication and Networking Technologies, 2016Segmentation of characters is one of the major step in OCR system. Devanagari script is a two dimensional form of symbol. It is very inconvenient to treat each form of character as a separate symbol because such combinations are very large in number. Segmentation is a process which separates words into characters.

Vehicle license plate character segmentation
International Journal of Automation and Computing, 2008Vehicle license plate (VLP) character segmentation is an important part of the vehicle license plate recognition system (VLPRS). This paper proposes a least square method (LSM) to treat horizontal tilt and vertical tilt in VLP images. Auxiliary lines are added into the image (or the tilt-corrected image) to make the separated parts of each Chinese ...

Chinese Word Segmentation with Character Abstraction
2013Chinese word segmentation is an important and necessary problem to analyze Chinese texts. In this paper, we focus on the primary challenges in Chinese word segmentation: low accuracy of out-of-vocabulary word. To resolve this difficult problems, we group the “similar” characters to generate more abstract representation.

A new robust character segmentation method
The 2014 2nd International Conference on Systems and Informatics (ICSAI 2014), 2014This paper proposed a robust segmentation method which can adopt varied conditions. The local binarization algorithm and global binarization are used as well as the blob analysis algorithm. Based on the long line fitting algorithm, the bottom frame connected with the characters is removed; based on the characters' gradient lines and average width and ...

A Method for Printed Uyghur Character Segmentation
2012Character segmentation is one of the most difficult stages in Uyghur recognition. In this paper, according to the writing style of the Uyghur, a method which is based on the image contour is proposed, it firstly calculates the baseline fields of the scanned image page by using Hough transformation, then segments the characters by adjusting the baseline

Automatic Handwritten Character Segmentation for Paleographical Character Shape Analysis
2016 12th IAPR Workshop on Document Analysis Systems (DAS), 2016Written texts are both abstract and physical objects: ideas, signs and shapes, whose meanings, graphical systems and social connotations evolve through time. To study this dual nature of texts, paleographers need to analyse large scale corpora at the finest granularity, such as character shape.

Segmentation of Arabic Text into Characters for Recognition
2008One of the steps of character recognition systems is the segmentation of words/sub-words into characters. The segmentation of text written in any Arabic script is a most difficult task. Due to this difficulty, many systems consider sub-words instead of a character as the basic unit for recognition.

A character segmentation method based on character structural features and projection
SPIE Proceedings, 2013According to the character structural features, such as fixed width of character and proportion relationship of character spacing, a novel method for characters segmentation of vehicle license plate based on projection is proposed. The algorithm can not only locate the optimal segmentation point between characters quickly, but also remove the ...
