Zusammenfassung:The essence of Chinese calligraphy inheritance resides in calligraphy education. However, it encounters challenges such as a scarcity of calligraphy instructors, time-consuming and inefficient manual assessment methods, and inconsistent evaluation criteria. In response to these challenges, this paper introduces a deep learning-based automatic calligraphy evaluation model. Initially, hard-pen handwriting samples from 100 volunteers were collected and preprocessed to create a dataset consisting of 4800 samples, along with the corresponding label files for hard-pen calligraphy evaluation. Subsequently, YOLOv5 was utilized for region detection and character recognition on the evaluation samples to obtain the corresponding standard samples. Lastly, a Siamese metric model, with VGG16 as the primary feature extraction submodule, was developed for hard-pen calligraphy evaluation. To improve feature extraction and propagation, a transformer structure was introduced to extract global information from both the evaluated and standard samples, thereby optimizing the evaluation results. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model achieves a precision of 0.75, recall of 0.833, and mAP of 0.990 on the hard-pen calligraphy evaluation dataset, effectively realizing automatic calligraphy evaluation. This model presents a novel approach for intelligently assessing hard-pen calligraphy.
