Introduction |
|
CLE Urdu 16 Point Size Diacritic Instance Images is an image corpus collected from three hundred and seventy pages which are scanned from one hundred and twenty eight books written using Noori Nastalique. These books have a variety of publishers, publication dates, paper, printing and transparency qualities and are selected from different domains such as literature, poetry, religion, biography, novel, interviews, culture/travel, history, autobiography, science, short stories and character representation. Up to seven pages from each book are scanned at 300 DPI to generate image corpus.
This image corpus is processed to extract diacritics including Ijam, Tashkil, punctuation marks and special symbols of Urdu. A total of twenty diacritic classes are distributed in separate folders. Each folder contains up to one hundred samples, however in a few cases the sample count may be lower. Some diacritics having similar shapes are merged in the same diacritic class, e.g. the single dots of ‘ب’ and ‘:’. |
