This paper is aimed at improving the performance of the word recognition system (WRS) of
handwritten Arabic text by extracting features in the frequency domain using the Stationary …

The automatic recognition of text on scanned images has several applications, such as
automatic postal mail sorting and searching in large volume of documents. Although, Arabic …

Optical character recognition (OCR) is widely used in various real-world applications, such
as digitizing learning resources, to assist visually impaired people and transform printed …

Thinning is one of the critical processes for different applications in image analysis, in
particular for Optical Character Recognition (OCR) applications. The accuracy performance …

Few evaluation protocols were suggested to assess quality of skeletonization methods of
grayscale images. Most of these protocols employ criteria and images both devoted to target …

Homotopic grayscale thinning leads to bushy skeleton when applied on noisy images. One
way to reduce this phenomenon is the use of the parametric thinning approach. It consists in …

Homotopic grayscale thinning leads to over-connected skeleton when applied on noisy
images. To avoid this phenomenon, the parametric thinning relaxes the thinning constraints …

L'opération morphologique de squelettisation transforme chaque objet d'une image en une
forme linéique qui préserve la topologie de ce dernier (propriété d'homotopie). Elle est …

Histopathology aims to analyze images of biological tissues to assess the pathologi¬ cal
condition of an organ and to provide a diagnosis. The advent of high-resolution slide …

Geometric deformations in historical documents significantly influence the success of both
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) techniques and human readability. These …
