arXiv:2603. 16883v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Inertial measurement unit-based online handwriting recognition enables the recognition of input signals collected across different writing surfaces but remains challenged by uneven character distributions and inter-writer variability.
arXiv:2609.36598v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A video can exhibit convincing motion and photorealism yet fail immediately when visual text collapses. Unlike generic scene content, visual text is un...
The paper presents a two‑stage method for recovering handwriting trajectories from static images. First, it predicts ordered stroke instances autoregressively, then reconstructs continuous motion within each stroke using direction‑related cues. Experiments on Chinese, English, and Tamil handwriting show that this ordered prediction outperforms post‑hoc ordering and baseline models, and that sampling density significantly impacts performance.
arXiv:2606. 24984v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learning representations that remain robust across centuries of variation in handwriting is a key challenge in diachronic representation learning.
arXiv:2609.17565v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Online handwriting recognition systems typically represent pen trajectories through fixed-length Euclidean shape descriptors that capture the spatial o...

The paper introduces GraphemeNet, a unified multi‑script handwritten character recognition architecture that explicitly encodes script‑geometric regularities. It uses two orthogonal binary axes: Persistent Scaffold Injection (PSI) to embed stroke‑level geometry into each encoder stage, and a choice between gated global pooling or a Stroke Topology Module for spatial relational reasoning. Across fourteen benchmarks in eight writing systems, GraphemeNet achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance with fewer parameters, demonstrating the effectiveness of structural‑prior efficiency for multi‑script HCR.
arXiv:2606. 05261v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Variable fonts enable continuous variation of glyph geometry along semantic design axes such as weight, width, slant, and optical size.
Teaching machines to emulate natural handwriting styles remains an open challenge, as it requires synthesizing stroke sequences that dynamically vary in shape, texture, pressure and script - not only across individuals, but also within a single person's handwriting. Attempts at this challenge have largely explored deep learning methods in both online and offline settings.
arXiv:2607. 26736v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Digital pens are commonly used to write on digital devices, providing the handwriting trace and enhancing human-computer interation.
WildHandBench is a new benchmark comprising 500 handwritten documents that span free text, tables, and formulas across four languages and nine real‑world scenarios. It introduces a Prior‑Driven Error (PDE) metric to assess whether mistakes stem from language priors rather than visual cues. In tests of 18 state‑of‑the‑art models, the best achieves only 71.85% accuracy, while humans reach 77.09%, and model errors are largely prior‑driven (63‑91%) compared to human errors (49%).
