Abstract-The explosive growth of image data leads to the research and development of image content searching and indexing systems. Image annotation systems aim at annotating automatically animage with some controlled keywords that can be used for indexing and retrieval of images. This paper presents a comparative evaluation of the image content annotation system by using the multilayer neural networks and the nearest neighbour classifier. The region growing segmentation is used to separate objects, the Hu moments, Legendre moments and Zernike moments which are used in as feature descriptors for the image content characterization and annotation.The ETH-80 database image is used in the experiments here. The best annotation rate is achieved by using Legendre moments as feature extraction method and the multilayer neural network as a classifier.
Most of the reported works in the field of character recognition systems achieve modest results by using a single method for calculating the parameters of the character image and a single approach in the classification phase of the system. So, in order to improve the recognition rate, this document proposes an automatic system to recognize isolated printed Tifinagh characters by using a fusion of some classifiers and a combination of some features extraction methods. The Legendre moments, Zernike moments, Hu moments, Walsh transform, GIST and texture are used as descriptors in the features extraction phase due to their invariance to translation, rotation and scaling changes. In the classification phase, the neural network, the Bayesian network, the multiclass SVM (Support Vector Machine) and the nearest neighbour classifiers are combined together. The experimental results of each single features extraction method with each single classification method are compared with our approach to show its robustness. A recognition rate of 100 % is achieved by using some combined descriptors and classifiers.
Abstract-In order to improve the recognition rate, this document proposes an automatic system to recognize isolated printed Tifinagh characters by using a fusion of 3 classifiers and a combination of some features extraction methods. The Legendre moments, Zernike moments and Hu moments are used as descriptors in the features extraction phase due to their invariance to translation, rotation and scaling changes. In the classification phase, the neural network, the multiclass SVM (Support Vector Machine) and the nearest neighbour classifiers are combined together. The experimental results of each single features extraction method and each single classification method are compared with our approach to show its robustness.
<p>In this paper, a graph based handwritten Tifinagh character recognition system is presented. In preprocessing Zhang Suen algorithm is enhanced. In features extraction, a novel key point extraction algorithm is presented. Images are then represented by adjacency matrices defining graphs where nodes represent feature points extracted by a novel algorithm. These graphs are classified using a graph matching method. Experimental results are obtained using two databases to test the effectiveness. The system shows good results in terms of recognition rate.</p>
