The entire character recognition system is logically characterized into different sections like Scanning, Pre-processing, Classification, Processing, and Post-processing. In the targeted system, the scanned image is first passed through pre-processing modules then feature extraction, classification in order to achieve a high recognition rate. This paper describes mainly on Feature extraction and Classification technique. These are the methodologies which play an important role to identify offline handwritten characters specifically in Gujarati language. Feature extraction provides methods with the help of which characters can identify uniquely and with high degree of accuracy. Feature extraction helps to find the shape contained in the pattern. Several techniques are available for feature extraction and classification, however the selection of an appropriate technique based on its input decides the degree of accuracy of recognition.

Balinese character recognition is a technique to recognize feature or pattern of Balinese character. Feature of Balinese character is generated through feature extraction process. This research using handwritten Balinese character. Feature extraction is a process to obtain the feature of character. In this research, feature extraction process generated semantic and direction feature of handwritten Balinese character. Recognition is using K-Nearest Neighbor algorithm to recognize 81 handwritten Balinese character. The feature of Balinese character images tester are compared with reference features. Result of the recognition system with K=3 and reference=10 is achieved a success rate of 97,53%.

Background: In the past decades, handwritten character recognition has received considerable attention from researchers across the globe because of its wide range of applications in daily life. From the literature, it has been observed that there is limited study on various handwritten Indian scripts and Odia is one of them. We revised some of the patents relating to handwritten character recognition. Methods: This paper deals with the development of an automatic recognition system for offline handwritten Odia character recognition. In this case, prior to feature extraction from images, preprocessing has been done on the character images. For feature extraction, first the gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) is computed from all the sub-bands of two-dimensional discrete wavelet transform (2D DWT) and thereafter, feature descriptors such as energy, entropy, correlation, homogeneity, and contrast are calculated from GLCMs which are termed as the primary feature vector. In order to further reduce the feature space and generate more relevant features, principal component analysis (PCA) has been employed. Because of the several salient features of random forest (RF) and K- nearest neighbor (K-NN), they have become a significant choice in pattern classification tasks and therefore, both RF and K-NN are separately applied in this study for segregation of character images. Results: All the experiments were performed on a system having specification as windows 8, 64-bit operating system, and Intel (R) i7 – 4770 CPU @ 3.40 GHz. Simulations were conducted through Matlab2014a on a standard database named as NIT Rourkela Odia Database. Conclusion: The proposed system has been validated on a standard database. The simulation results based on 10-fold cross-validation scenario demonstrate that the proposed system earns better accuracy than the existing methods while requiring least number of features. The recognition rate using RF and K-NN classifier is found to be 94.6% and 96.4% respectively.

This paper proposes a new feature extraction method for off-line recognition of Myanmar printed documents. One of the most important factors to achieve high recognition performance in Optical Character Recognition (OCR) system is the selection of the feature extraction methods. Different types of existing OCR systems used various feature extraction methods because of the diversity of the scripts’ natures. One major contribution of the work in this paper is the design of logically rigorous coding based features. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, this paper assumed the documents are successfully segmented into characters and extracted features from these isolated Myanmar characters. These features are extracted using structural analysis of the Myanmar scripts. The experimental results have been carried out using the Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier and compare the pervious proposed feature extraction method.

In our proposed work we will accept the challenges of recognizing the words and we will work to win the challenge. The handwritten document is scanned using a scanner. The image of the scanned document is processed victimization the program. Each character in the word is isolated. Then the individual isolated character is subjected to “Feature Extraction” by the Gabor Feature. Extracted features are passed through KNN classifier. Finally we get the Recognized word. Character recognition is a process by which computer recognizes handwritten characters and turns them into a format which a user can understand. Computer primarily based pattern recognition may be a method that involves many sub process. In today’s surroundings character recognition has gained ton of concentration with in the field of pattern recognition. Handwritten character recognition is beneficial in cheque process in banks, form processing systems and many more. Character recognition is one in all the favored and difficult space in analysis. In future, character recognition creates paperless environment. The novelty of this approach is to achieve better accuracy, reduced computational time for recognition of handwritten characters. The proposed method extracts the geometric features of the character contour. These features are based on the basic line types that forms the character skeleton. The system offers a feature vector as its output. The feature vectors so generated from a training set, were then used to train a pattern recognition engine based on Neural Networks so that the system can be benchmarked. The algorithm proposed concentrates on the same. It extracts totally different line varieties that forms a specific character. It conjointly also concentrates on the point options of constant. The feature extraction technique explained was tested using a Neural Network which was trained with the feature vectors obtained from the proposed method.
