The Fujitsu R&D company and Fujitsu Laboratories announced the development of an artificial intelligence (AI) model that can recognise handwritten strings of Chinese characters with recognition accuracy of 96.3%. Measured on a standard used by academic societies this is the highest level of accuracy achieved to date. This breakthrough in AI technology has been made possible thanks to Fujitsu’s collaboration with IBM Research – which was founded in 1984 as IBM’s first research laboratory for AI-related research.
The Fujitsu R&D company and Fujitsu Laboratories announced the development of an artificial intelligence (AI) model that can recognise handwritten strings of Chinese characters with recognition accuracy of 96.3%. Measured on a standard used by academic societies this is the highest level of accuracy achieved to date. As the model is effective for languages that have no spacing between words, such as Japanese or Korean, in addition to using it in the company's AI tech, Fujitsu's future goal is to create a handwritten digital ledger system for Japan.
