A Classifier Using Global Character Level and Local Sub-unit Level Features for Hindi Online Handwritten Character Recognition
A classifier is developed that defines a joint distribution of global character features, number of sub-units and local sub-unit features to model Hindi online handwritten characters. The classifier uses latent variables to model the structure of sub-units. The classifier uses histograms of points, orientations, and dynamics of orientations (HPOD) features to represent characters at global character level and local sub-unit level and is independent of character stroke order and stroke direction variations. The parameters of the classifier is estimated using maximum likelihood method. Different classifiers and features used in other studies are considered in this study for classification performance comparison with the developed classifier. The classifiers considered are Second Order Statistics (SOS), Sub-space (SS), Fisher Discriminant (FD), Feedforward Neural Network (FFN) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) and the features considered are Spatio Temporal (ST), Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT), Discrete Cosine Transform (SCT), Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), Spatial (SP) and Histograms of Oriented Gradients (HOG). Hindi character datasets used for training and testing the developed classifier consist of samples of handwritten characters from 96 different character classes. There are 12832 samples with an average of 133 samples per character class in the training set and 2821 samples with an average of 29 samples per character class in the testing set. The developed classifier has the highest accuracy of 93.5\% on the testing set compared to that of the classifiers trained on different features extracted from the same training set and evaluated on the same testing set considered in this study.

Structural analysis of Hindi online handwritten characters for character recognition
Direction properties of online strokes are used to analyze them in terms of homogeneous regions or sub-strokes with points satisfying common geometric properties. Such sub-strokes are called sub-units. These properties a…
