• Abstract: Recognition of Arabic characters is essential for natural language processing and computer vision fields. The need to recognize and classify the handwritten Arabic letters and characters are essentially required. In this paper, we present an algorithm for recognizing Arabic letters and characters based on using deep convolution neural networks (DCNN) and support vector machine (SVM). This paper addresses the problem of recognizing the Arabic handwritten characters by determining the similarity between the input templates and the pre-stored templates using both fully connected DCNN and dropout SVM. Furthermore, this paper determines the correct classification rate (CRR) depends on the accuracy of the corrected classified templates, of the recognized handwritten Arabic characters. Moreover, we determine the error classification rate (ECR). The experimental results of this work indicate the ability of the proposed algorithm to recognize, identify, and verify the input handwritten Arabic characters. Furthermore, the proposed system determines similar Arabic characters using a clustering algorithm based on the K-means clustering approach to handle the problem of multi-stroke in Arabic characters. The comparative evaluation is stated and the system accuracy reached 95.07% CRR with 4.93% ECR compared with the state of the art.

  Scene text recognition methods have struggled to attain high accuracy and fast inference speed. We present an empirical study of AR decoding in STR, and discover that the AR decoder not only models linguistic context, but also provides guidance on visual context perception. We construct a series of CPPD models and also plug the proposed modules into existing STR decoders. Experiments on both English and Chinese benchmarks demonstrate that the CPPD models achieve highly competitive accuracy while running approximately 8x faster than their AR-based counterparts.
