Review on Feature Extraction Technique for Handwritten Marathi Compound Character Recognition

Abstract

This paper give a short review on feature extraction technique for Handwritten Marathi Compound Character recognition. The ultimate goal of designing a handwriting recognition system with an accuracy rate of 100% is quite illusionary, because even human beings are not able to recognize every handwritten text without any doubt. Compound characters which are one of the features of Marathi script, derived from Devanagari, occur frequently in the script. Recognition of these characters faces challenges to the researchers due to their complex structure. This paper presents a different feature extraction techniques for recognition of unconstrained handwritten Marathi compound characters.
