项目摘要

Everyone can write beautiful characters because of the diffusion of word processor in recent years. But on the other side, there are people who are not satisfied with uniformly font, too. Some warmth will be able to be added to communications if a character font that reflects individual writing habit can be generated. In the source of such thought, we proposed a method which generates an arbitrary character font that reflects individual writing habit automatically. At first, a character group that an user writes is inputted by image scanner. Handwritten-like character fonts which are the standard fonts has already been installed. Then, the computer analyzes whether geometrical transformation and scale conversion are done between the standard characters font and the enter characters, and the user's individual writing habit is extracted. If the character transformation rule is applied conversely toward the standard character font, arbitrary kind of character that reflects individual writing habit can be generated automatically.We developed a system called "writing habit including character font generator" which includes the proposed algorithm, and its performance was evaluated. The system indicates the device which can extract individual writing habit from handwritten characters which are inputted by the image scanner and can express on display or print out the characters that reflect the individual writing habit when character codes are entered with keyboard. The effectiveness of the algorithm was confirmed by the quantitative examination and the comparison by the visual observation toward characters that many subjects write and outputted character fonts that reflect the subjects' individual writing habit.The result of the study was introduced abundantly to the paper, journal and so on. Furthermore, the result was transfered to a company at once, and the sale of the software product is started in February 2003.

由于近年来文字处理软件的普及，每个人都能写出漂亮的字符。但另一方面，也有一些人对统一字体不满意。如果能产生一种反映个人书写习惯的字体，将能够为交流增添一些温暖。在这种思想的基础上，我们提出了一种自动生成反映个人书写习惯的任意字体的方法。首先，通过图像扫描仪输入用户书写的字符组。已经安装了作为标准字体的类似手写的字符字体。然后，计算机分析标准字符字体和输入字符之间是否进行了几何变换和比例转换，并提取用户的个性化书写习惯。将字符变换规则反向应用于标准字体，可以自动生成反映个人书写习惯的任意类型的字符，我们开发了一个包含该算法的包括字符字体生成器的书写习惯系统，并对其性能进行了评估。该系统是指从图像扫描仪输入的手写字符中提取个性化书写习惯，并在用键盘输入字符代码时，将反映个性化书写习惯的字符显示或打印出来的装置。通过对多个受试者书写的字符进行定量检测和视觉观察比较，验证了该算法的有效性，并输出了反映受试者个人书写习惯的字体，研究结果被大量地介绍给论文、期刊等。此外，结果立即转移到一家公司，并于2003年2月开始销售该软件产品。
