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. 15509v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present a fully automated closed-loop AutoML framework that uses GPT-5, GPT-4o, and Claude Sonnet 4 as autonomous neural architecture designers for cross-lingual handwritten optical character recognition.
