Arabic character segmentation is a necessary step in Arabic Optical Character Recognition
(OCR). The cursive nature of Arabic script poses challenging problems in Arabic character …

Generating personal handwriting fonts with large amounts of characters is a boring and time-
consuming task. For example, the official standard GB18030-2000 for commercial font …

In this paper, we propose a new font and size identification method for ultra-low resolution
Arabic word images using a stochastic approach. The literature has proved the difficulty for …

Font recognition is useful for improving optical text recognition systems' accuracy and time,
and to restore the documents' original formats. This paper addresses a need for Arabic font …

Video text information plays an important role in semantic-based video analysis, indexing
and retrieval. In this paper, we proposed a novel Farsi text detection approach based on …

Many methods have been proposed for Arabic font recognition, but none of them has
considered the specialty of the Arabic writing system. Most of these methods are either …

What happens if we see a suitable font for our design work but we do not know its name?
Visual Font Recognition (VFR) systems are used to identify the font typeface in an image …

In this paper, we present a new approach to offline OCR (optical character recognition) for
printed Persian subwords using wavelet packet transform. The proposed algorithm is used …

Video text detection plays an important role in semantic‐based video analysis. In this study,
a new Farsi/Arabic text detection and localisation approach is proposed. First, with the help …

We present in this paper a new approach for Arabic font recognition. Our proposal is to use a
fixed-length sliding window for the feature extraction and to model feature distributions with …
