Handwritten Character Recognition using Deep Learning and Neural Network

Handwritten character recognition is among the most challenging research areas in pattern recognition and image processing. With everything going digital, applications of handwritten character recognition are emerging in different offices, educational institutes, healthcare units, commercial units and banks etc., where the documents that are handwritten are dealt more frequently. Many researchers have worked with recognition of characters of different languages but there is comparatively less work carried for Devanagari Script. In past few years, however the work carried out in this direction is increasing to a great extent. Handwritten Devanagari Character Recognition is more challenging in comparison to the recognition of the Roman characters. The complexity is mostly due to the presence of a header line known as shirorekha that connects the Devanagari characters to form a word. The presence of this header line makes the segmentation process of characters more difficult. There is uniqueness to the handwriting styles of every individual which adds to the complexity. In this paper, a recognition system based on neural network has been proposed for Devanagari (Marathi) alphabets. Each of the characters that are extracted through query image is resized and is then passed to the neural networks for the process of recognition.

Handwritten character recognition has been one of the active and challenging research areas in the field of image processing and pattern recognition. It has numerous applications which include, reading aid for blind, bank cheques and conversion of any hand written document into structural text form. In this paper an attempt is made to recognize handwritten characters for English alphabets without feature extraction using multilayer Feed Forward neural network. Each character data set contains 26 alphabets. Fifty different character data sets are used for training the neural network. The trained network is used for classification and recognition. In the proposed system, each character is resized into 30x20 pixels, which is directly subjected to training. That is, each resized character has 600 pixels and these pixels are taken as features for training the neural network. The results show that the proposed system yields good recognition rates which are comparable to that of feature extraction based schemes for handwritten character recognition

The Neural Network

Handwritten character Recognition is one of the active area of research where deep neural networks are been utilized. Handwritten character Recognition is a challenging task because of many reasons. The Primary reason is different people have different styles of handwriting. The secondary reason is there are lot of characters like capital letters, small letters & special symbols. In existing were immense research going on the field of handwritten character recognition system has been design using fuzzy logic and created on VLSI(very large scale integrated)structure. To Recognize the tamil characters they have use neural networks with the Kohonen self-organizing map(SOM) which is an unsupervised neural networks. In proposed system this project design a image segmentation based hand written character recognition system. The convolutional neural network is the current state of neural network which has wide application in fields like image, video recognition. The system easily identify or easily recognize text in English languages and letters, digits. By using Open cv for performing image processing and having tensor flow for training the neural network. To develop this concept proposing the innovative method for offline handwritten characters. detection using deep neural networks using python programming language.

In this paper, an enterprise is made to perceive manually written characters for English letters so as. The precept point of this mission is to plan a master framework for, "HCR(English) utilizing neural community". That could viably understand a particular individual-of-kind layout making use of the artificial neural community approach. The manually written man or woman acknowledgment trouble has grown to be the maximum famous trouble in ai. Handwritten man or woman acknowledgment has been a difficult space of exam, with the execution of gadgets getting to know we suggest a neural network-based methodology. The development is based totally on neural network, that is a subject of look at in artificial intelligence. Distinct strategies and methods are used to broaden a handwriting person recognition system. Acknowledgment, precision fee, execution, and execution time are massive versions on the way to be met through the technique being applied. The purpose is to illustrate the effectiveness of neural networks for handwriting character recognition.
