Spatial Similarity based Stroke Number and Order Free Clustering
International audienceIn this paper, we present an innovative approach to integrate spatial relations in stroke clustering for handwritten Devanagari character recognition. It handles strokes of any number and order, writer independently. Learnt strokes are hierarchically agglomerated via Dynamic Time Warping based on their location and their number and stored accordingly. We experimentally validate our concept by showing its ability to improve recognition performance on previously published results
