H-PSO-LSTM: Hybrid LSTM Trained by PSO for Online Handwriter Identification

Abstract

The automatic writer’s recognition from his manuscript is a topical issue handling online writing. Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) are an effective means of solving such problem. More specifically, RNN networks with Long and Short Term Memory (LSTM) represent an ideal mean for writer’s recognition. Intuitively, LSTM networks are based on the gradient method for their learning processes. In addition, an LSTM node presents a complex data processing machine.
