Handwriting recognition (HWR) on whiteboards experiences, due to its usage in so-called “Smart-Meeting-Rooms”, growing attention in the field of pattern recognition. Herein, distortions caused by the writer’s upright position are a challenge.
In this thesis, systems for on-line HWR of whiteboards notes based on both continuous and discrete Hidden-Markov-Models (HMM) are developed and enhanced. Relevant features are selected and the pen’s pressure information is modeled in a lossless and implicit manner. The script lines within a line of text written on a whiteboard suffer from distortions. Hence, a novel approach for identifying the script lines in those texts is presented.
