Proposal for Arabic Mathematical Alphabetic Symbols
This is a proposal to encode a set of characters used to write Arabic mathematical notation in the international character encoding standard Unicode. This set of characters was published in Unicode Standard version 6.1 in January 2012
Component-based Segmentation of words from handwritten Arabic text
Efficient preprocessing is very essential for automatic recognition of handwritten documents. In this paper, techniques on segmenting words in handwritten Arabic text are presented. Firstly, connected components (ccs) are extracted, and distances among different components are analyzed. The statistical distribution of this distance is then obtained to determine an optimal threshold for words segmentation. Meanwhile, an improved projection based method is also employed for baseline detection. The proposed method has been successfully tested on IFN/ENIT database consisting of 26459 Arabic words handwritten by 411 different writers, and the results were promising and very encouraging in more accurate detection of the baseline and segmentation of words for further recognition

Proposal to add the N’Ko script to the BMP of the UCS
This is a proposal to encode the N'Ko script in the international character encoding standard Unicode. This script was published in Unicode Standard version 5.0 in July 2006. The script was created to write the Manden languages of West Africa. A few changes have been made to the set of N'Ko characters in Unicode since this proposal was accepted, so users should refer to the latest code charts, accessible from:
