The model was trained to boost ink and attenuate everything else (on 1r margin). But it is interesting that even the simplest linear regression here (mixing images with certain weights, that's all), produces this good a separation.
I've been looking at 'A' shapes and the first place I looked was the history section on You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
A's by Marci (or his assistant?) appear to be somewhat similar to the leftmost part of the feature on f116v. I have no expertise to compare the writing, but this general shape of 'A' was obviously used some 400 years ago.
