A Faster Method for Chinese Font Recognition Based on Harris Corner
A new fast font recognition method based on Harris corners is proposed in this paper. According to our observation, we find out that the font discriminative information is mainly hidden in some interesting points of characters. Based on this discovery, we extract the texture feature of the interesting points. The Harris corners are extracted as the interesting points. Experimental results show that our method is 20 times faster than the traditional Gabor features based method while keeping an almost equal accuracy.
