Connectionist temporal classification: labelling unsegmented sequence data with recurrent neural networks

TLDR
This paper presents a novel method for training RNNs to label unsegmented sequences directly, thereby solving both problems of sequence learning and post-processing.
Abstract
Many real-world sequence learning tasks require the prediction of sequences of labels from noisy, unsegmented input data. In speech recognition, for example, an acoustic signal is transcribed into words or sub-word units. Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) are powerful sequence learners that would seem well suited to such tasks. However, because they require pre-segmented training data, and post-processing to transform their outputs into label sequences, their applicability has so far been limited. This paper presents a novel method for training RNNs to label unsegmented sequences directly, thereby solving both problems. An experiment on the TIMIT speech corpus demonstrates its advantages over both a baseline HMM and a hybrid HMM-RNN.

Ligature based Urdu Nastaleeq sentence recognition using gated bidirectional long short term memory

TL;DR: This paper proposes a novel gated BLSTM (GBLSTM) model for recognition of printed Urdu Nastaleeq text based on ligature information that incorporates raw pixel values as features instead of human crafted features, because of the latter being more error prone.
