Hierarchical OCR for printed Tamil text
Proceedings of SPIE(2019)
Abstract
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) of Tamil characters is harder, due to the variety, compared to that of Latin characters. We propose a new technique to perform optical character recognition of printed Tamil characters using a hierarchical Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) which recognises the similarities between characters, while identifying the differences between the fine-grained characters. The performance of the developed system is comparable to the state-of-the-art techniques for OCR.
