Diffusion-Based Ukrainian Handwritten Text Generation with Cross-Domain Style Transfer

Handwritten text generation (HTG) conditioned on writer style has been widely studied for Latin scripts, but remains underexplored for low-resource and non-Latin writing systems, leaving open how well existing models generalise beyond the Latin domain. Cyrillic, particularly Ukrainian, lacks both large-scale writer-labeled datasets and empirical evidence of such generalisation. To address this gap, we construct a Ukrainian handwritten word dataset of 126,177 images from 308 writers using connected-component segmentation, quality filtering, and targeted oversampling of underrepresented Ukrainian characters. We retrain DiffusionPen, a MobileNetV2 triplet-loss style encoder with a CANINE-con...
