A process and system are provided for determining a most likely combination of characters. In particular, character data which includes information indicative of at least one handwritten character is obtained. The character data includes at least one set of segmentation points for the handwritten character. Then, a score can be provided for each particular character of a set of previously stored characters based on a comparison between the character data and the previously stored particular character. In addition, it is possible to compare visual aspects of the handwritten character to visual aspects of each of the previously stored characters for determining likely characters. Also, a Fisher Matching procedure can be used on the character data to ascertain the likely characters. A plurality of handwritten characters can include a first character that is connected to a second character of the handwritten characters via a ligature. A further score of the ligature can be determined based on a starting point of the ligature and an ending point of the ligature. Furthermore, the first character can be connected to the second character via a transition. A particular score of the transition can be ascertained based on a difference in length of the first character and the second character. This particular score can be combined with a score corresponding to the particular handwritten characters.
A process for determining a most likely combination of characters, comprising the steps of:
A process for ascertaining one or more particular characters from character data associated with a handwriting, comprising the steps of:
The process according to claim 44, wherein the predetermined code is assigned to each respective segment based on a similarity of a curvature of the respective segment and a list of previously stored extensions.
The process according to claim 61, wherein the height, top and bottom position coefficients are estimated.
The process according to claim 61, wherein the height, top and bottom position coefficients are the same for each pair of the three classes.
A process for ascertaining one or more particular characters from character data associated with a handwriting, comprising the steps of:
A process for ascertaining at least one particular character from character data associated with a handwriting, comprising the steps of:
A process for ascertaining at least one particular handwritten character from character data associated with handwritten characters, comprising the steps of:
A software system which, when executed on a processing device, configures the processing device to determine a most likely combination of characters, the software system comprising:
A software system which, when executed on a processing device, configures the processing device to ascertain one or more particular characters from character data associated with a handwriting, the software system comprising:
A software system which, when executed on a processing device, configures the processing device to ascertain one or more particular characters from character data associated with a handwriting, the software system comprising:
A software system which, when executed on a processing device, configures the processing device to ascertain at least one particular character from character data associated with handwritten characters, the software system comprising:
A software system which, when executed on a processing device, configures the processing device to ascertain at least one particular handwritten character from character data associated with handwritten characters, the software system comprising:
