i am working on handwritten character recognition using matlab,i want to know how can i train the neural network for alphabets, how can i generate the database for the neural network

Hello All,

i am working on handwritten character recognition using matlab, i got the sample code from the file exchange of mathworks, but it is only for numbers but how about alphabets, i am not able know whether i have change in data.mat to oget required output, i understood the concept but not getting where to change the database, to know how can i train the neural network for alphabets, how can i generate the database for the neural network from the link http://www.mathworks.in/matlabcentral/fileexchange/8676-character-recognition-example-iiitraining-a-simple-nn-for-classification

We are not good at guessing which code you are using from the file exchange.

Even if we knew, you should ask the author.

Hmmm....

Q: If I need a database of handwritten English signatures, should I use a search engine or just submit a post to ANSWERS with the title

 " I have to recognise handwritten english alphabets "

A: I don't know, that's a tough one ... may I get back to you on that?

[Greg Heath]

My point is:

I prefer a title that tells you exactly what is in the post. For example:

Title : Where can I find a data base of handwritten English alphabets?

For algorithm reasearch, see Vision Bibliography. When you have MATLAB programming/syntax questions, or error messages, come back with full details.

http://www.mathworks.in/matlabcentral/fileexchange/8676-character-recognition-example-iiitraining-a-simple-nn-for-classification, it is the link where i got the code, i just want to know how can i train the neural network for the alphabets thats it

I'm not the Neural Network guy here. Ask the author of your code, or perhaps Greg will see your question. I've tagged it Neural Networks.

i am working on a car plate number recognition system , and my problem is how to create a dataset for my own language (not english ).

Why can't you simply walk around your town snapping photos of cars that you see?
