Ali Rachidi, Mustapha Eddahibi, Youssef Es-Saady, Mustapha Amrouch · 2014
The design and implementation of Amazigh OCR systems is very crucial for the Amazigh language promotion and development. Till now, there is a lack of such system. Therefore, there is growing interest for Amazigh optical character recognition in research works. Indeed, some research works have led to design of systems improving this situation. In this paper, we describe different Amazigh OCR systems and approaches developed and tested in our research team, showing their characteristics and results. The aim of this description is to achieve a comprehensive summary of the various approaches and systems which could help open up some interesting new prospects. Keywords—Tifinagh; Offline Character Recognition; HMM; Finite Automata. —————————— ——————————
