摘要
We describe a novel algorithm for visually identifying the font used in a scanned printed document. Our algorithm requires no pre-recognition of characters in the string (i. e. optical character recognition). Gradient orientation features are collected local the character boundaries, and quantized into a hierarchical Bag of Visual Words representation. Following stop-word analysis, classification via logistic regression (LR) of the codebooked features yields per-character probabilities which are combined across the string to decide the posterior for each font. We achieve 93.4 % accuracy over a 1000 font database of scanned printed text comprising Latin characters.
