Preprocessing of low-quality handwritten documents using Markov random fields.
29 Jun 2009
This paper presents a statistical approach to the preprocessing of degraded handwritten forms including the steps of binarization and form line removal. The degraded image is modeled by a Markov Random Field (MRF) where the hidden-layer prior ...

Combining slanted-frame classifiers for improved HMM-based Arabic handwriting recognition.
29 Jun 2009
The problem addressed in this study is the offline recognition of handwritten Arabic city names. The names are assumed to belong to a fixed lexicon of about 1,000 entries. A state-of-the-art classical right-left hidden Markov model (HMM)-based ...

A literacy tutoring experience for prospective special educators and struggling second graders.
23 Jun 2009
This study examined the learning of teacher candidates taking a language arts course in a special-educator preparation program and that of the second graders they tutored in a supervised field component of the course. Teacher candidates' knowledge ...

Memory functioning in developmental dyslexia: an analysis using two clinical memory measures.
21 Jun 2009
The goals of this project were threefold: to determine the nature of the memory deficit in children/adolescents with dyslexia, to utilize clinical memory measures in this endeavor, and to determine the extent to which semantic short-term memory ...

Dyslexia was explored within the framework of three explanations for language functioning following hemispherectomy (i.e., equipotentiality, hemispheric specialization, and crowding hypothesis/hierarchy of specialized functions) and the extent to ...

We investigated focus-switching and search rates in an N-Back task for stimuli presumably encoded either in a phonological/semantic or an abstract-visual format. Experiment 1 used Chinese characters and tested Chinese speakers and non-Chinese ...

Conflict control during sentence comprehension: fMRI evidence.
19 Jun 2009
This study investigates the neuro-cognitive mechanisms employed to monitor and resolve conflicts between competing sentential representations during sentence comprehension. Participants took part in a sentence comprehension task as well as the ...

Those voices in your head: activation of auditory images during reading.
19 Jun 2009
Auditory imagery experiences (AIEs) occur when readers simulate character voices while reading. This project assessed how familiarity with voice and narrative contexts influences activation of AIEs. Participants listened to dialogs between two ...
