Performance Comparison of Gurmukhi Script: k-NN Classifier with DCT and Gabor Filter
Main Article Content
Abstract
This paper presents a comparative performance analysis for Gurmukhi OCR at word level. To evaluate the performance k¬-NN classifier has been used. Before the classification, Features have been extracted from word images. For feature extraction, word images have been scanned and these images are machine printed images.Here Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) and Gabor filter has been used to extract the features. DCT provides 100 features of scanned images in zig-zag method and Gobor provides 189 features for scanned images. To train the classifier of Gurmukhi OCR, 50 different classes with 30-35 samples of each class i.e 1600 samples have been taken. 750 samples have been used to test the system. Using Gabor filter, k-NN classifier provides 92.6229%of correctness while with DCT with k-NN provides 96.9945% of accuracy.
