Abstract

We have wonderful scripts which are lying to be digitised in Tamil. Tamil is a language which is enriched with several ancient scripts. Optical character recognition is done in Tamil in order to digitise the scripts. The optical character recognition consists of scanning phase, preprocessing phase, segmentation phase and recognition phase. The retrieved text is stored as an archive in the database. The archive also encompasses the original images. The front end GUI contains the search engine wherein which the keyword is put. The crawler crawls in the database and retrieves the searched page and the image based on context. The retrieved pages will be displayed in the order of relevant context and the appropriate page is clicked and fetched as desired.
