TITLE

DEEP LEARNING BASED HANDWRITTEN

CHARACTER RECOGNITION
DOMAIN

Deep learning is a subfield of machine learning which uses artificial

neural networks that is inspired by the structure and function of the
human brain.It is preferred in the classification of big data sets
because it can provide fast and efficient results.

ABSTRACT

In the first paper the designed system for offline handwritten

character recognition have made use of OpenCV and Tensorflow.
In the second paper the design of a recognition system model is
based on ANN and Wavelet Transformation. In the third paper a new
deep learning technique namely Directed Acyclic Graph-
Convolutional Neural Network(DAG-CNN) is used for handwritten
character recognition
SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK
TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES

 OpenCV is a library of programming functions for real time computer

vision
 Tensorflow is a free & open-source s/w library used for m/c learning
algorithms
 Artificial Neural Network are computing systems inspired by biological
neural network
 Wavelet Transforms are a mathematical means for performing signal
analysis
 Directed Acyclic Graph(DAG) n/w is a neural network for deep
learning with layers arranged as a directed acyclic graph
Example :
ADVANTAGES

 Interpreting handwritten postal addresses on envelopes

 Helps in processing of bank cheques
 Interpretation of handwritten medical prescriptions
DISADVANTAGES

 Requires large amount of training data

 Not very robust to large variations
 Recognition rate can not be 100%
CONCLUSION

The system can recognize only letters and digits of English

language.ANN of Kohenon –ACON type score the highest
recognition rate.Wavelet Transforms enhance the recognition rates.In
order to use the low,middle and high level features for classification
we use multi scaled CNN called DAG-CNN.
FUTURE SCOPE

 We can add support for more languages in the future

 We can add support for special symbols in the future
