Online Handwriting Recognition using HMM
Basically handwriting recognition can be divided into two parts as Offline handwriting recognition and Online handwriting recognition. Highly accurate output with predefined constraints can be given by Online handwriting recognition system as it is related to size of vocabulary and writer dependency, printed writing style etc. Hidden markov model increases the success rate of online recognition system. Online handwriting recognition gives additional time information which is not present in Offline system. A Markov process is a random prediction process whose future behavior rely only on its present state, does not depend on the past state. Which means it should satisfy the Markov condition. A Hidden markov model (HMM) is a statistical markov model. In HMM model the system being modeled is assumed to be a markov process with hidden states. Hidden Markov models (HMMs) can be viewed as extensions of discrete-state Markov processes. Human-machine interaction can be drastically getting improved as On-line handwriting recognition technology contains that capability. As instead of using keyboard any person can write anything by hand with the help of digital pen or any similar equipment would be more natural. HMM build a effective mathematical models for characterizing the variance both in time and signal space presented in speech signal
Unsupervised Neural Hidden Markov Models
In this work, we present the first results for neuralizing an Unsupervised
Hidden Markov Model. We evaluate our approach on tag in- duction. Our approach
outperforms existing generative models and is competitive with the
state-of-the-art though with a simpler model easily extended to include
additional context.Comment: accepted at EMNLP 2016, Workshop on Structured Prediction for NLP.

Deep Learning: Our Miraculous Year 1990-1991
In 2020, we will celebrate that many of the basic ideas behind the deep
learning revolution were published three decades ago within fewer than 12
months in our "Annus Mirabilis" or "Miraculous Year" 1990-1991 at TU Munich.
Back then, few people were interested, but a quarter century later, neural
networks based on these ideas were on over 3 billion devices such as
smartphones, and used many billions of times per day, consuming a significant
fraction of the world's compute.Comment: 37 pages, 188 references, based on work of 4 Oct 201
Learning Spatial-Semantic Context with Fully Convolutional Recurrent Network for Online Handwritten Chinese Text Recognition
Online handwritten Chinese text recognition (OHCTR) is a challenging problem
as it involves a large-scale character set, ambiguous segmentation, and
variable-length input sequences. In this paper, we exploit the outstanding
capability of path signature to translate online pen-tip trajectories into
informative signature feature maps using a sliding window-based method,
successfully capturing the analytic and geometric properties of pen strokes
with strong local invariance and robustness. A multi-spatial-context fully
convolutional recurrent network (MCFCRN) is proposed to exploit the multiple
spatial contexts from the signature feature maps and generate a prediction
sequence while completely avoiding the difficult segmentation problem.
Furthermore, an implicit language model is developed to make predictions based
on semantic context within a predicting feature sequence, providing a new
perspective for incorporating lexicon constraints and prior knowledge about a
certain language in the recognition procedure. Experiments on two standard
benchmarks, Dataset-CASIA and Dataset-ICDAR, yielded outstanding results, with
correct rates of 97.10% and 97.15%, respectively, which are significantly
better than the best result reported thus far in the literature.Comment: 14 pages, 9 figure
