Keywords- Handwritten character recognition Marathi Barakhadi zonal moments classifier feature extraction.Ĭharacter recognition is becoming more and more important in the modern world. It helps humans ease their jobs and solve more complex problems.
Handwritten character recognition is a topic of research in recent years. It aims at automation by reducing the human efforts to a larger extent and to meet various applications like postal automation, office automation etc.
Lot of work is being done in this particular area on different Indian languages but the work is limited to basic character set which comprises of vowels and consonants. Researchers have also achieved good recognition accuracy for the basic data set.īecause of the complexity associated with the large data due to the variations in the writing style of different individuals and shape similarity, handwritten character recognition systems are moreĬomplex. Very little work is reported on Marathi language Barakhadi characters to the best of our knowledge. Marathi Barakhadi characters consist of top, side and bottom modifiers with their nature being curved with straight line existing between or to the sides of the consonants. We will be using Marathi Barakhadi characters for the experiment. Previous research on HCR for Devanagiri language uses various feature extraction methods such as moments for vowel recognition, capturing directional information using gradient method, chain code histogram and shadow features and, connected component labelling etc. Some of these features are also applied on different languages like Bangla, kannada, Gurumukhi etc. Gradient information is sensitive to noise where as moments are robust to high frequency noises as discussed in. In this paper, we are proposing a method to recognise the vowel and consonant part separately for Marathi Barakhadi character using zonal moments and quadratic classifier. Section 2 discusses the Marathi language Barakhadi characters. Section 3 gives the proposed methodology. Section 4 is devoted to feature extraction. Marathi is the language spoken by the native people of Maharashtra. Marathi is an Indo-Aryan language spoken by about 71 million people mainly in the Indian state of Maharashtra and neighbouring states. Marathi is also spoken in Israel and Mauritius.
