2 CHAPTER 4 DESIGNING AND DEVELOPMENT OF OFFLINE HANDWRITTEN ISOLATED ENGLISH CHARACTER RECOGNITION MODEL 4.1 Introduction As described in Section 2.7, recognition rate of characters G, N, O, Y and digit 4 is less than 35%. To eliminate this deficiency, researcher has decided to develop the model. In this chapter, character recognition model is designed and developed for offline handwritten isolated English capital characters G, N, O, Y and digit 4. To implement this model, handwritten character and digit samples are collected from various writers and perform digitization, character segmentation, preprocessing, feature extraction and classification steps on it. The proposed handwritten character recognition model converts image into text file. 4.2 Designing of Offline Handwritten Isolated English Character Recognition Model To design offline handwritten isolated English character recognition model, following steps are performed Collect handwritten data samples Digitization of the data - Scan each data samples and create an image file Character Segmentation- Separate each Character Preprocessing Perform binarization, thresholding and noise removal Feature Extraction- Extract Structural and Statistical features Classification Identify each character using decision tree algorithm and display output. Figure 4.1 shows Offline Handwritten Isolated English Character Recognition Model diagram. 129

MNIST database for handwritten digits, IAM database for handwritten English text, CEDAR database for handwritten words and ZIP codes etc. For the proposed model handwritten isolated English Capital Characters and digits are collected in following manner: 1. Handwritten data samples are collected from seven persons of different age from 18 years to 56 years. 2. Handwritten data samples are collected for English Capital characters G, N, O and Y. 3. Handwritten data samples are also collected for digit
4 4. Data is collected on a blank A4 size paper. Each character and digits is written 10 times by each person. 5. Writer may use pencil or ball point pen of any ink color. For proposed work researcher has collected handwritten data samples of her and from other six persons. Persons name are CKKSir, Mayur, Manoj, Manjulaben, Mitul and Jhanvi. Each character and digit is written 10 times by each person. So there are 70 samples of each and character and digit Digitization of the Data The proposed model requires a scanned image as an input. This image is acquired through a scanner, digital camera or any other suitable digital device. For the proposed work, handwritten data sample are scanned using HP DeskJet 1510 scanner at 300 dpi and saved in.jpg format which are shown in Figure 4.2. Researcher has created total seven directories to store handwritten datasheet of seven writers separately. Directories are named as per writer s name. i.e. Purna. As described in Section 2.4.1, handwritten data samples are collected for all English capital characters and digits but for the proposed model images of characters G, N, O, Y and digit 4 are needed so it is cropped and stored in the following format. Writer s name_character i.e. Purna_G Each file naming convention is as shown in Table

6 Table 4.1 Naming Convention of Handwritten Data Samples Naming Convention Meaning Purna_G File contains handwritten data samples of Character G written 10 times by writer Purna. Purna_N File contains handwritten data samples of Character N written 10 times by writer Purna. Purna_O File contains handwritten data samples of Character O written 10 times by writer Purna. Purna_Y File contains handwritten data samples of Character Y written 10 times by writer Purna. Purna_4 File contains handwritten data samples of Digit 4 written 10 times by writer Purna Character Segmentation In character segmentation, each character is separated and saved as an individual character image. The proposed model requires image with single character. Hence if there is more than one character in an image, character segmentation is performed. To separate the character, researcher has used OpenCV and developed a module named segmentcharacter, Pseudo Code for character segmentation is presented in Table 4.2 which uses cvfindcontours(), cvdrawcontours(), cvsetimageroi() and cvsaveimage() functions. First of all each contours are identified in an image. Contour means an outline representing or bounding the shape of character. Opencv cvfindcontours() function is used to find contours in an image. cvdrawcontours() function is used to draw contours outline. cvsetimageroi() function is used to set an image Region of Interest (ROI) and cvsaveimage() is used to save the separated individual character. 133

Data pre-processing describes any type of processing performed on raw data to prepare it for another processing procedure. Pre-processing is the preliminary step which transforms the data into a format that will be more easily and effectively processed. Pre-processing is an essential stage since it controls the suitability of the results for the successive stages. 136
10 The main objective of the pre-processing stage is to normalize and remove variations that would otherwise complicate the classification and reduce the recognition rate [1]. Factors affecting accuracy of character recognition Following factors affect the accuracy of character recognition. Older or discolored documents. Low contrast documents. Scanner quality Type of printed document Paper quality Fonts used in the document Scan Resolution - The recommended best scanning resolution for OCR accuracy is 300 dpi. Higher resolutions do not necessarily result in better accuracy and can slow down OCR processing time. Resolutions below 300 dpi may affect the quality and accuracy of OCR results. A series of operations have to be performed during the pre-processing stages. The main objective of the pre-processing is to organize the information so that the subsequent character recognition task becomes simpler. Pre-processing includes following stages. Figure 4.4 Preprocessing Steps 137
11 RGB to Grayscale Image Conversion RGB means Red, Green and Blue. In RGB to Grayscale image conversion, RGB image is converted to grayscale image. A gray-scale image is composed of different shades of grey color. Researcher has used java to covert RGB to grayscale image. TYPE_BYTE_GRAY is used to create a new grayscale image and paint the original colored image on it. Pseudo code for RGB to grayscale image conversion is presented in Table 4.3. Figure 4.3 RGB to Grayscale Image Conversion Procedure Name : togray(bimage) Purpose : To convert color image to gray scale image Input : Bufferedimage Output : Grayscale image Variable Used : image_width Width of an image file image_height Height of an image file image - Grayscale image Begin image_width To get image width image_height To get image height image Create a new grayscale image image paint the original colored image on it return image end Above pseudo code return grayscale image as an output. (a) RGB image and (b) Grayscale image are shown in Figure
12 (a) (b) Figure 4.5 (a) RGB Image (b) Gray Scale Image Grayscale image occupies less memory space as compare to RGB image as each pixel is representing eight bits information Thresholding Thresholding converts gray scale image to binary image (black and white image). The goal of Thresholding is to remove only the background, by setting it to white, and leave the foreground image unchanged. Thresholding selects a proper threshold value for the image and then convert all the pixels above the threshold to white and below the threshold to black. In any image analysis or enhancement problem, it is very essential to identify the objects of interest from the rest. Thresholding is the process of separating the objects of an image from its background. Otsu s Thresholding Method In the proposed model Otsu s Thresholding method is used. Otsu s Thresholding method is an efficient and frequently used method. Otsu's method is an image processing technique that can be used to convert a gray scale image into a binary image by calculating a threshold to split pixels into two classes. More generally, Otsu's method can be used to split a histogram into two classes which minimizes the intra-class variance of the data contained within the class. 139
13 Otsu s method uses the image histogram data as input and finds a pixel value (threshold level) that is able to separate the image into foreground and background (or even to multiple levels). It converts gray scale image into a binary image on the basis of pixel whether it is below or above the specified threshold value. Researcher has developed a module for thresholding using Java. Pseudo codes for thresholding, otsu s threshold value and histogram are presented in Table 4.4, 4.5 & 4.6. Table 4.4 Pseudo Code for Thresholding Procedure Name : threshold(greyimg) Purpose : To convert grayscale image to binary image Input : Grayscale image with single character/digit image Output : Binary image Variable Used : red newpixel image_width grey image width image_height grey image height threshold Threshold value binarized Bufferedimage i index variable j index variable alpha Call to Sub Procedure : otsuthreshold(greyimg) 140

(a) (b) Figure 4.6 (a) Gray Scale Image (b) Thresholding Image Noise Removal Scanned documents often contain noise that arises due to printer, scanner, print quality, age of the document, etc. Therefore, it is necessary to filter this noise before character recognition. Image noise is random variation of brightness or color information in images, and is usually an aspect of electronic noise. It can be produced by the sensor and circuitry of a scanner or digital camera. Image noise is an undesirable by-product of image capture that adds spurious and extraneous information [1]. Noise is visible as a grain or film grain in an image. Optical scanning devices introduce some noises like disconnected line segments, bumps and gaps in lines, filled loops etc. It is necessary to remove all these noise elements prior to the character recognition. Noise removal is the process of removing or reducing unwanted noise. Depending on the type of disturbance, the noise can affect the image to different extent. There are following types of noises. I. Gaussian Noise (Amplifier Noise): Gaussian noise is caused by random fluctuations in the signal. It is modeled by random values added to an image. In Gaussian noise, each pixel in the image will be changed from its 144
18 original value by a small amount. Each pixel in the noisy image is the sum of the true pixel value and a random, Gaussian distributed noise value. II. Salt and Pepper Noise: Salt and pepper noise is also called fat-tail distributed or impulsive noise or spike noise. An image containing salt and pepper noise will have dark pixels in bright regions and bright pixels in dark regions. It presents itself as sparsely occurring white and black pixels. This noise arises in the image because of sharp and sudden changes of image signal. An effective noise reduction method for this type of noise is a median filter or a morphological filter. Researcher has used OpenCV smooth() to remove median filter and gaussian filter noise from an image as described in Table 4.2. Median filter is a common technique for removing noise. It preserves edges while removing noise Feature Extraction The heart of any character recognition system is the formation of feature vector to be used in the recognition stage. Feature extraction can be considered as finding a set of parameters (features) that define the shape of the underlying character as precisely and uniquely as possible [1]. The features are to be selected in such a way that they help in discriminating between characters. There is no universally accepted set of feature vectors. In Chapter 3, structural and statistical features of characters and digits are identified. Among them following features are used for the proposed model. 1. Zoning: Divide the image into 9 equal zones (3 3) and count number of foreground pixel value of each zone. 2. Zone with Zero Foreground Pixel Value: Find out the zone whose foreground pixel value is Number of Endpoints: Count number of endpoints. 4. Endpoint Existence in Zone: Check if endpoint exists in zone. 145
19 1. Zoning Zoning is the most popular method used for character recognition. In the zoning feature extraction, a character is usually divided into zones of predefined size. In the proposed model character image is divided into 3 rows and 3 columns total 9 zones (3 3) and number of foreground pixel value of each zone is counted. In Figure 4.7, Character O is divided into 9 zones. Zoning Figure 4.7 Zoning of Character O For zoning, researcher has used java and developed a module named zoning. Pseudo code for zoning is presented in Table 4.7. Table 4.7 Pseudo Code for Zoning Procedure Name : getimagezones(filename) Purpose : Divide an image into 9 zones and get each zone information Input : Binary image with single character/digit image Output : Image with 9 zones and its information Variable Used : image bufferedimage zonewidth zone width zoneheight zone height count index variable imgs bufferedimage array 146

Zone with Zero Foreground Pixel Value To identify this feature, black and white (threshold) image is used. In black and white image, background is white and foreground is black as shown in Figure 4.6(b). Perform zoning on black and white image as shown in Figure 4.7 and check each pixel value in of zone whether it is black or white. If it is black then it is a foreground pixel else background pixel. Count number of foreground pixel value and find out the zone whose foreground pixel value is 0 i.e. in Figure 4.7, foreground pixel value of zone 5 is 0. To find the zone with zero foreground pixel, zonedata of Table 4.7 is used. Pseudo code for zone with zero foreground pixel value is presented in Table

Number of Endpoints Endpoint defines starting point and ending point of a character. In the proposed model numbers of endpoints are calculated for character and digit. As shown in Figure 4.8 &4.9, Character O has zero endpoint and Character Y has 3 endpoints respectively. End Points Figure 4.8 Character O having 0 Endpoint 149
23 End Points Figure 4.9 Character Y having 3 Endpoints 4. Endpoint Existence in Zone After finding numbers of endpoints, check in which zone endpoint exists. As shown in Figure 4.9, Y has 3 endpoints. Endpoint exists in Zone 1, Zone 3 and Zone 7 as shown in figure End Point Existence Figure 4.10 Endpoint Existence in Zone 1, Zone 3 and zone 8 To find number of endpoints and endpoint existence in zone, researcher has used OpenCV and Java to develop a module named endpointexistence. Pseudo code to find endpoint and endpoint existence in zone is presented in Table 4.9. cvconvexhull() and cvconvexitydefects() is used to count number of endpoints. Java drawline() is used to draw a point at endpoint. Pseudo code to count number of endpoints and to find end point existence in zone is presented in Table

26 4.2.6 Classification The classification stage is the main decision making stage of a character recognition system. Classification stage uses the features extracted in the previous stage feature extraction. There are many classification algorithms discussed in chapter 2. Among them, decision tree classifier algorithm is used in this proposed model. The concept of decision tree is decomposition of complex problem into smaller, more manageable whereby it represents the relationship among attribute and decision in a diagram that mimic to tree [2] [3]. Decision trees are powerful and popular tools for classification and prediction. Decision trees represent rules, which can be understood by humans and used in knowledge system such as database. In the decision tree, the root and internal nodes contain attribute test conditions to separate records that have different characteristics. Decision table and decision tree are designed for 4 characters G, N, O and Y and 1 digit 4 which are shown in Table 4.10 and Figure Table 4.10 Decision Table for Characters G, N, O, Y and Digit 4 Character/Digit No. of End Points G 3 End Point Existence Zone 2, Zone 6, Zone 9 Zone with Zero Pixel Value - N 2 Zone 3, Zone 7 - O - - Zone 5 Y 3 Zone 1, Zone 3, Zone 7 Zone 2, Zone Zone 6, Zone 8 - Proposed tree is designed on the basis of structural and statistical features extracted in previous stage. 153
