A Review in Assamese Handwritten Character Recognition

Detection and recognition of handwritten characters has been an existing field since the early age of computing. The main purpose of character recognition is to detect characters from the digitized form of a printed or handwritten document. Though much work remains, two relevant factors are preventing OCR systems from recognizing handwriting at its best: the variance in handwriting and the large number of scripts in use worldwide. As a result, a specific solution to the handwriting recognition problem is not achieved. Assamese script, the official writing system for the Assamese language, is spoken in the Indian state of Assam. Its characters are distinct and intricate, making it difficult to recognize. This study assesses how well the current recognition systems function when used with the Assamese script and numerous other Indian scripts. Though the paper is meant for Assamese script an abundance of discussions is briefed according to the research meant on scripts around the world and in India. The paper also shares a comparison among various recognition techniques.
