Frequency Analysis of Handwritten Characters and a Method for Generation by Computers

Abstract

The generation of handwritten character by computers is tried in this study. First, the features of handwritten characters have been analyzed in the frequency region. It has been understood that there are some frequency characteristics, which look like 1/f or white spectra, at the positions of the edge and the center of gravity of the character. Next, the character is approximated with B-spline curve, and the control-point of B-spline curve is fluctuated base on the spectrum analysis. The character generated in this study looks like that generated by handwritten.
