An efficient algorithm for Arabic optical font recognition using scale-invariant detector

Abstract This paper proposes a new algorithm for Arabic optical font recognition (AOFR) as the first stage for Arabic optical character recognition. The proposed algorithm uses scale-invariant detector, gradient-based descriptor, and k-means clustering. The scale-invariant detector is used to find key points that identify the font of an image of printed Arabic text. The work in this paper compares between several scale-invariant detectors and selects the best one for AOFR. A gradient-based descriptor similar to the one in the famous scale-invariant feature transform algorithm is used to describe the detected key points. In addition, k-means clustering is used for font classification. In this paper, the mean recognition rate is used to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm. The proposed algorithm shows superior performance when compared with recently published algorithms for AOFR.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
