This paper presents particularly a contextual post processing subsystem for a Turkish machine printed character recognition system. The contextual post processing subsystem is based on positional binary 3-gram statistics for Turkish language, an error corrector parser and a lexicon, which contains root words and the inflected forms of the root words. Error corrector parser is used for correcting CR alternatives using Turkish Morphology.

A heuristic algorithm for optical character recognition of Arabic script
YarmanVural, FT; Atici, A (1996-03-20)
In this paper, a heuristic method is developed for segmentation, feature extraction and recognition of the Arabic script. The study is part of a large project for the transcription of the documents in Ottoman Archives. A geometrical and topological feature analysis method is developed for segmentation and feature extraction stages. Chain code transformation is applied to main strokes of the characters which are then classified by the hidden Markov model (HMM) in the recognition stage. Experimental results i...

An Efficient Part-of-Speech Tagger for Arabic
Kopru, Selcuk (2011-02-26)
In this paper, we present an efficient part-of-speech (POS) tagger for Arabic which is based on a Hidden Markow Model. We explore different enhancements to improve the baseline system. Despite the morphological complexity of Arabic our approach is a data driven approach and does not utilize any morphological analyzer or a lexicon as many other Arabic PUS taggers. This makes our approach simple, very efficient and valuable to be used in real-life applications and the obtained accuracy results are still compa...
An automatic geo-spatial object recognition algorithm for high resolution satellite images
Ergul, Mustafa; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (2013-09-26)
This paper proposes a novel automatic geo-spatial object recognition algorithm for high resolution satellite imaging. The proposed algorithm consists of two main steps; a hypothesis generation step with a local feature-based algorithm and a verification step with a shape-based approach. In the hypothesis generation step, a set of hypothesis for possible object locations is generated, aiming lower missed detections and higher false-positives by using a Bag of Visual Words type approach. In the verification s...
A Shadow based trainable method for building detection in satellite images
Dikmen, Mehmet; Halıcı, Uğur; Department of Geodetic and Geographical Information Technologies (2014)
The purpose of this thesis is to develop a supervised building detection and extraction algorithm with a shadow based learning method for high-resolution satellite images. First, shadow segments are identified on an over-segmented image, and then neighboring shadow segments are merged by assuming that they are cast by a single building. Next, these shadow regions are used to detect the candidate regions where buildings most likely occur. Together with this information, distance to shadows towards illuminati...
