ABSTRACT:

A novel approach to printed

telugu character recognition is presented in this paper.
This is a proposed model using the mapping capability of
neural network and is based on the text recognition in
various languages. The architecture includes consensus
methods like Backpropagation algorithm to train the
 neural net. This architecture when extended to hand-
written text enables reading of manuscripts.

INTRODUCTION:

Character recognition in telugu is a

daunting task owing to its degree of curvature. This paper draws its
inspiration from the work done on character recognition in
different languages. This model is based on a neural network
trained with the classical Backprop algorithm.
The structure of this paper is:
 -The creation of the database and the information
representation model.
-Employing the background reduction to extract the
original alphabet.
-The preprocessing used to compute the feature vectors
that will be applied to
the network.
-The structure and training details of the neural net.
-Enhancing the efficiency of neural net using invariance.

COMPOSITION OF THE DATABASE:

The database comprises of 10,275

samples which enables the neural net to identify printed alphabets
in 15 different fonts. The election of adequate data representation
is a key feature in pattern recognition.

Using a low-level representation ie,

pixel representation, requires a very large training set which may
be more difficult owing to the fact that the neural net will learn
noise along with the trained sample. For a high-level
representation, the preprocessing stage should be so carefully
