Abstract.

A new algorithm RAV (reparameterized angle variations) is proposed which makes explicit use of trajectory information where the time evolution of the pen coordinates plays a crucial role. The algorithm is robust against stroke connections/abbreviations as well as shape distortions, while maintaining reasonable robustness against stroke-order variations. Preliminary experiments are reported on tests against the Kuchibue_d-96-02 database from the Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology.
