Evolutionary Metric-Learning-Based Recognition Algorithm for Online Isolated Persian/Arabic Characters, Reconstructed Using Inertial Pen Signals

Abstract

The development of sensors with the microelectromechanical systems technology expedites the emergence of new tools for human-computer interaction, such as inertial pens. These pens, which are used as writing tools, do not depend on a specific embedded hardware, and thus, they are inexpensive. Most of the available inertial pen character recognition approaches use the low-level features of inertial signals. This paper introduces a Persian/Arabic handwriting character recognition system for inertial-sensor-equipped pens. First, the motion trajectory of the inertial pen is reconstructed to estimate the position signals by using the theory of inertial navigation systems. The position signals are then used to extract high-level geometrical features. A new metric learning technique is then adopted to enhance the accuracy of character classification. To this end, a characteristic function is calculated for each character using a genetic programming algorithm. These functions form a metric kernel classifying all the characters. The experimental results show that the performance of the proposed method is superior to that of one of the state-of-the-art works in terms of recognizing Persian/Arabic handwriting characters.

“…Although the three-dimensional triangulation method works well, it does not mean that machines must “see” the world in the same way as humans. To make a method achieve robust results, different sensing technologies can be considered [ 16 , 17 ]. Different from the stereo triangulation method, camera using time-of-flight method (TOF) emits light pulses directly from a single camera, and the light is reflected back to the camera by the objects in the scene.…”

“…In [91] (ACS) et al the handwriting character recognition system for inertial-sensor-equipped pens is presented. In this system, the characteristic function is calculated for each character using a GP algorithm.…”

“…For example, if we focus on image recognition, RVM (Representative vector machine) [26] is highlighted. It concentrated on character recognition with PC-2DLSTM (Principal Component 2-D Long Short-Term Memory) [27] and metric learning-based recognition [28] and achieved the accurate result using deep neural network and in of face recognition and facial expression. Also, SSP (superimposed sparse parameter) classifier [29] and AFERS (facial expression recognition system) [30] have been proposed as the top approaches for classification purposes.…”
