Unconstrained Handwritten Malayalam Character Recognition using Wavelet Transform and Support vector Machine Classifier

This paper presents the application of wavelet processing in the domain of handwritten character recognition. To attain high recognition rate, robust feature extractors and powerful classifiers that are invariant to degree of variability of human writing are needed. The proposed scheme consists of two stages: a feature extraction stage, which is based on Haar wavelet transform and a classification stage that uses support vector machine classifier. Experimental results show that the proposed method is effective

Pattern Analysis Techniques for the Recognition of Unconstrained Handwritten Malayalam Character Images

The objective of the study is to develop a hand written character recognition system that could recognisze all the characters in the mordern script of malayalam language at a high recognition rate

Bivariate semi-Pareto distributions and processes

A bivariate semi-Pareto distribution is introduced and characterized using geometric minimization. Autoregressive minification models for bivariate random vectors with bivariate semi-Pareto and bivariate Pareto distributions are also discussed. Multivariate generalizations of the distributions and the processes are briefly indicated.
