Xiao Wang · Beijing Daxue Xuebao. Zirankexueban · 2013

The authors present a novel method for the OFR of single Chinese character on a large font set.This method explores the specific parts of strokes of each character,called Stroke Tips,which is regarded as a good feature for font recognition.Experiments show that the recognition rate on common font sets is superior than that of other methods.Furthermore,experiments on an extended font set confirm the scalability of the proposed method,which means that this method is suitable for the OFR of single Chinese character on a large font set.
