High-Accuracy Clustering Using LDA for Fast Japanese Character Recognition
Takahiro Sasaki, Hideaki Goto (Tohoku Univ.) PRMU2012-73 HIP2012-62
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Recognizing text in natural scene images is very important to develop various systems such as an assis-
tant device for visually-impaired people.
Since computational resources are limited on such mobile devices, a fast and precise Optical Character Recognition(OCR) algorithm is needed.
In feature vector based OCR systems, Nearest Neighbor (NN) search is often used, and its speed improvement is quite important.
In this paper, we develop an OCR scheme with tree-based clustering technique with LDA (Linear Discriminant Analysis), and the second-order
candidate reduction by linear search in lower dimensional spaces.
The experimental results show that our proposed method runs 33 times faster than the conventional linear search, at mere 0.3% accuracy drop.
