Abstract
A character recognition device includes circuitry that is configured to remove duplicate successive points of a plurality of points in a handwritten stroke to form an enhanced handwritten stroke; space the plurality of points a uniform distance apart; detect primary strokes and secondary strokes of the enhanced handwritten stroke; merge the primary strokes; generate a primary merged stroke; extract raw point-based features from local features of the primary merged stroke; extract statistical features from computed statistics associated with the raw point-based features to form primary merged stroke features; train and classify data from the primary merged stroke features and secondary stroke features to form stroke models; determine a plurality of primary merged stroke model candidates from the stroke models; compute a likelihood value for a combined set of primary stroke candidates and a set of secondary stroke candidates; and determine the handwritten stroke from the computing.
