Deep Learning Character Recognition of Handwritten Devanagari Script: A Complete Survey
Arpit Sharma, B N Mithun · 2023
Recognition of handwritten characters is a concept in which the single characters are classified, it is a facility of an electronic device to scan and decipher the handwritten input from a variety of sources, including written texts, images, and other digital touch-screen devices. This concept is being used in distinctive sectors such as the processing of bank checks, form data entry, and parcel posting and nowadays it is becoming a very important issue in the pattern recognition domain and a very challenging task to resolve it. Since deep learning is a crucial strategy in solving detection and pattern recognition problems, several algorithms are available to classify the characters with better prediction rates on different datasets, and ultimately, whichever algorithm gives the optimized results will be considered the best solution for the character recognition problem. As a result, various solutions proposed by the existing researchers are discussed using deep learning algorithms in this survey article.
