Authors Monji Kherallah, Lobna Haddad and Adel M. Alimi
Abstract One of the most promising methods of interacting with small portable computing devices, such as personal digital assistants, is the use of handwriting. In order to make this communication method more natural, we proposed to visually observe the writing process on ordinary paper and to automatically recover the pen trajectory from numerical tablet sequences. On the basis of this work we developed handwriting recognition system based on Freeman codes similarity. The modelling system is based on beta-elliptical representation. Our experimentations have been released using ADAB dataset. In this paper we will present the different steps of the handwriting recognition system. The results obtained are promising.
