Automated Handwriting Recognition and Speech Synthesizer for Indigenous Language Processing

In recent years,researchers in handwriting recognition analysis relating to indigenous languages have gained significant internet among research communities.The recent developments of artificial intelligence(AI),natural language processing(NLP),and computational linguistics(CL)find useful in the analysis of regional low resource languages.Automatic lexical task participation might be elaborated to various applications in the NLP.It is apparent from the availability of effective machine recognition models and open access handwritten databases.Arabic language is a commonly spoken Semitic language,and it is written with the cursive Arabic alphabet from right to left.Arabic handwritten Character Recognition(HCR)is a crucial process in optical character recognition.In this view,this paper presents effective Computational linguistics with Deep Learning based Handwriting Recognition and Speech Synthesizer(CLDL-THRSS)for Indigenous Language.The presented CLDL-THRSS model involves two stages of operations namely automated handwriting recognition and speech recognition.Firstly,the automated handwriting recognition procedure involves preprocessing,segmentation,feature extraction,and classification.Also,the Capsule Network(CapsNet)based feature extractor is employed for the recognition of handwritten Arabic characters.For optimal hyperparameter tuning,the cuckoo search(CS)optimization technique was included to tune the parameters of the CapsNet method.Besides,deep neural network with hidden Markov model(DNN-HMM)model is employed for the automatic speech synthesizer.To validate the effective performance of the proposed CLDL-THRSS model,a detailed experimental validation process takes place and investigates the outcomes interms of different measures.The experimental outcomes denoted that the CLDL-THRSS technique has demonstrated the compared methods.

Design and Implementation of Prototype System for Online Handwritten Uyghur Character Recognition

Based on the analysis of the unique shapes and writing styles of Uyghur characters,we design a framework for prototype character recognition system and carry out a systematic theoretical and experimental research on its modules.In the preprocessing procedure,we use the linear and nonlinear normalization based on dot density method.Both structural and statistical features are extracted due to the fact that there are some very similar characters in Uyghur literature.In clustering analysis,we adopt the dynamic clustering algorithm based on the minimum spanning tree（MST）,and use the k-nearest neighbor matching classification as classifier.The testing results of prototype system show that the recognition rates for characters of the four different types（independent,suffix,intermediate,and initial type） are 74.67%,70.42%,63.33%,and 72.02%,respectively;the recognition rates for the case of five candidates for those characters are 94.34%,94.19%,93.15%,and 95.86%,respectively.The ideas and methods used in this paper have some commonality and usefulness for the recognition of other characters that belong to Altaic languages family.
