Abstract:Background: Offline Marathi handwriting recognition presents a significant challenge due to the script's complexity and the variability of individual writing styles. Methods: In the present work, an advanced encoder-decoder framework is introduced, wherein a novel selfadditive-attention mechanism is integrated. This model capitalizes on a Convolutional Neural Network paired with a Joint Scale Feature Extractor (CNN-JSE) to discern low-level image features within the IIIT-HW-Dev dataset. Such features are subse… Show more
