Cursive characters are written on an economical principle to reduce the motion of a pen in the limit of distinction between characters. That is, the pen is not lifted up to move for writing a next stroke, the pen is not moved at all, or connected two strokes chance their shapes to a similar and simple shape which is easy to be written. For these reasons, strokes and korean alphabets are not only easy to be changed, but also difficult to be splitted. In this paper, we propose a curvature stroke modeling method for splitting and matching by using a structural primitive. A curvature stroke is defined as a substroke which does not change its curvanture. Input strokes handwritten in a cursive style are splitted into a sequence of curvature strokes by segmenting the points which change the direction of rotation, which occur a sudden change of direction, and which occur an excessive rotation Each reference of korean alphabets is handwritten in a printed style and is saved as a sequence of curvature strikes which is generated by splitting process. And merging process is used to generate various sequences of curvature strikes for matching. Here, it is also considered that imaginary strokes can be written or omitted. By using a curvature stroke as a unit of recognition, redundant splitting points in input characters are effectively reduced and exact matching is possible by generating a reference curvature stroke, which consists of the parts of adjacent two korean alphasbets, even when the connecting points between korean alphabets are not splitted. The results showed 83.6% as recognition rate of the first candidate and 0.99sec./character (CPU clock:66MHz) as processing time.

The aim of this study was to compare the physicochemical properties of domestic and imported commercial plain wheat flour and dough. Four types of domestic wheat flour (DW; DW1-4) were compared to four types of imported wheat flour (IW; IW1-4). DWs exhibited lower moisture content, lightness (L), and whiteness, and higher protein content, redness (a), and yellowness (b), than those exhibited by IWs. Solvent retention capacity of DWs and IWs was similar; however, DWs showed higher gluten performance index. Pasting properties, analyzed by rapid visco analyzer (RVA), were similar for DW1, DW2, and IWs; however, DW3 and DW4 showed different RVA patterns. Considering that DW3 and DW4 were organic wheat flour, possible incorporation of damaged kernel might increase amylase activities resulting in decreased peak viscosity. Dough resistance (108.4-159.9 g) and extensibility (11.8-16.7 mm) of IWs were higher than those of DWs (78.0-118.7 g, 8.7-12.5 mm, respectively).
