Machine Learning, especially Deep Learning has been incorporated into Pattern Recognition and Image Processing for the Handwritten Character Recognition (HCR) research which is always a hot area of research. Foreign scripts are enriched with Handwritten Character Recognition (HCR) studies. But very less research can be seen for HCR in Indian scenario, especially in Malayalam script. This paper provides an overview of different feature extraction and classification techniques used for Handwritten Character Recognition of Malayalam Scripts using Deep Learning Approaches. The accuracy measures of classification of the different algorithms have been given so that the researchers can select a particular algorithm with high performance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
