Research on On-line Uyghur Handwritten Character Recognition Technology Based on Modified Center Distance Feature

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Through the analysis on the unique characteristics of Uyghur characters, in order to further improve the recognition rate, this paper developed the Center Distance Feature (CDF) to its modified form which is named as Modified Center Distance Feature (MCDF). By combination with some low dimensional features including stroke number feature, additional part’s location feature, shape feature, bottom-up and left-right density feature(BULR) in experiments, MCDF gifted robust recognition accuracy of 98.77% for the 32 isolated forms of Uyghur characters. MCDF increased the recognition accuracy by 4.51 points comparing with the result from the combination of CDF with the same low dimensional features mentioned above, which is 94.16%. This paper used the samples from 400 different volunteers. The recognition system is trained using 70 percent of 12800 samples from 400 different writers and tested on the remained 30 percent.
