ABSTRACT
In this paper, we propose a general notion of character which encompasses two concepts: points within a character set, such as Unicode, as well as arbitrary tuples defining structured objects. We call these general characters "charactles". Using this model, text can be defined to be a linear sequence of charactles, not requiring the use of hierarchical structures to encodethe text. As a result, all sorts of processing, such as searching and typesetting, are potentially simplified.

Fisher vector for scene character recognition
We evaluate the Fisher Vector with linear classifier for character recognition.Experimental results show that FV outperforms most methods on eight datasets.FV could even outperform CNN based methods given limited amount of training samples.We show that ...
The display of characters using gray level sample arrays
SIGGRAPH '80: Proceedings of the 7th annual conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniquesCharacter fonts on raster scanned display devices are usually represented by arrays of bits that are displayed as a matrix of black and white dots.
