English Abstract

In this thesis a framework model for Arabic handwritten text recognition is developed to deal with the missing text fragments.

Since there are many Arabic manuscripts ancient of ancient times have been either destroyed or stolen, whether all or some parts or pages, so it’s important to complete the text.

The framework model consists of two stages; the first stage consists of four parts which are Input 1 scan text image, recognition stage, extracted feature, and Input 2 Typed.

The second stage is the decision stage according to the availability of all Arabic characters set forms.

So if all the Arabic characters set are available in the original text the missing fragments will be discovered from the text, otherwise handwritten missing characters are estimated then embedded the fragment in the original document.

The original handwritten text with missing characters, after extracting the handwritten characters' features, then the missing texts will be typed and converted to handwritten text in the same form of the original text.

In this thesis the handwritten text sample of writers was so small, 17 writers, so the recognition process needs to be much efficient and accurate to recognize the characters written by many different users more than the sample used.

The developed framework model can be used in the library, and governmental offices for discovering the missing text in the handwritten documents.

The programming language used in the implementation was C#.Net.
