Handwritten Text Recognition Using Convolutional Neural Network
OCR (Optical Character Recognition) is a technology that offers comprehensive alphanumeric recognition of handwritten and printed characters at electronic speed by merely scanning the document. Recently, the understanding of visual data has been termed Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR). Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR) is the OCR module that can convert scans of handwritten or printed characters into ASCII text. ASCII data is the standard format for data encoding in electronic communication. ASCII assigns standard numeric values to letters, numeral, symbols, white-spaces and other characters. In more technical terms, OCR is the process of using an electronic device to transform 2-Dimensional textual information into machine-encoded text. Anything that contains text both machine written or handwritten can be scanned either through a scanner or just simply a picture of the text is enough for the recognition system to distinguish the text. The goal of this papers is to show the results of a Convolutional Neural Network model which has been trained on National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) dataset containing over a 100,000 images. The network learns from the features extracted from the images and use it to generate the probability of each class to which the picture belongs to. We have achieved an accuracy of 90.54% with a loss of 2.53%.
