Abstract
Abstract: The cursive handwriting recognition is a challenging task because the recognition system has to handle not only large shape variation of human handwriting, but also character segmentation. Usually the recognition performance depends crucially upon the segmentation process. Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) have the ability to model similarity and variation among samples of a class. In this paper we present an extended sliding window feature extraction method and an HMM based two-pass modeling approach. Whereas our feature extraction method makes the resulting system more robust with word baseline detection, the two-pass recognition approach exploits the segmentation ability of the Viterbi algorithm and creates another HMM set and carries out a second pass recognition. The total performance is enhanced by combination of the two pass results. Experiments of recognizing cursive handwritten words with 30000 words lexicon have been carried out and show that our novel approach can achieve better recognition performance and reduce the relative error rate significantly.
