Abstract

Ancient scripts & inscriptions often offer vital and important understandings to the preceding societies, and separate them effectively that is essential for conservation of cultural remains, decrypting scripts, and protecting the cultural heritage. Usual research generally pay attention on identification of ancient script data in a secluded way, like exemption of old age inscriptions like hand-written scripts. Nonetheless, ancient inscriptions and scripts derive in several arrangements across different mediums, which then creates various challenges for Optical Character Recognition (OCR). Things like erosion, disruption, and inscriptional fragmentation may mis-perceive the process of recognition of ancient inscriptions engravings. To handle this issue, we suggest an ancient inscription recognition framework that can handle different inputs such as stone inscriptions and handwritten scripts. Offering a proportional analysis of various OCR tools & techniques for evaluate how much these are effective and operative in terms of accuracy, recognition of characters, and its processing speed. It plays an important role in inscriptional studies, that consists the inscriptional studies that are crafted on various materials like stones, metal and pottery. This is mostly essential for preserving and digitalizing ancient scripts.
