Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) was efficiently regenerated from cultured roots of 15-d-old seedlings on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 0.45 mM thidiazuron and 13.3 mM 6-benzyladenine. Within 28 d of culture initiation, induction of organogenic calluses and subsequent differentiation into shoot buds were observed. Shoot buds upon subculture to MS basal medium elongated into healthy shoots. Excised shoots (2-4 cm) were rooted on Soilrite w irrigated with water either in vitro or in vivo. Plants with well-developed root systems were established under field conditions after hardening in the glasshouse, where they developed into flowering plants and produced mature fruits with viable seeds.

consonant modified by vowel sound) and CVM (M is a modifier that modifies the nature of the preceding In this paper, we describe a system for the automatic vowel, e.g. nasalization). Other Tare forms were recognition of isolated handwritten Devanagari omitted for the Purpose of this study. Given ICl = 35, characters obtained by linearizing consonant IVI = 11, IN\ = 10, /MI = 4, andreshcting ourselves to conjuncts. Owing to the large number of characters valid combinations, we are left with a total of 1487 and resulting demands on data acquisition, we use characters to recognize-Some examples of each of structural reconnition techniques to reduce some these categories of characters are shown in Figure 1.characters to others. The residual characters are then classiJied using the subspace method. Finally the results of structural recognition and feature-based matching are mapped to give final output. The proposed system is evaluated for the writer dependent scenario.

We present a comparison of elastic matching schemes for writer dependent on-line handwriting recognition of isolated Tamil characters. Three different features are considered namely, preprocessed x-y co-ordinates, quantized slope values, and dominant point co-ordinates. Seven schemes based on these three features and dynamic time warping distance measure are compared with respect to recognition accuracy, recognition speed, and number of training templates. Along with these results, possible grouping strategies and error analysis is also presented in brief.
