Fine Segmentation of Chinese Character Strokes Based on Coordinate Awareness and Enhanced BiFPN by Henghui Mo, Linjing Wei

“…The proposed Coordinate-Aware Attention mechanism (CAA) divides the backbone network input feature map into four parts, applying different weights for horizontal, vertical, and channel attention to compute and fuse key information, thus capturing the contextual regularity of closely arranged stroke positions. The network’s neck integrates an enhanced weighted bi-directional feature pyramid network (BiFPN), enhancing the fusion effect for features of strokes of various sizes. …”
