Abstract

The "MODI lipi" script, which was used historically in Maharashtra, Western India, to record religious writings, and which was the official script used by the Maratha administration from the 17th century until the mid-1900s, has a rich cultural legacy. Even though the "Manuscript" is a valuable source of inspiration and knowledge from a bygone age, modern audiences are not as familiar with it. Recognizing its potential to inspire and educate the present generation, there is a need to develop a sophisticated recognition system for MODI within handwritten character recognition. Deep learning-based algorithms, such as ResNet101, InceptionV3, and Xception, have demonstrated remarkable efficacy in various pattern identification applications, including character recognition. In the current landscape, transfer learning algorithms, especially those leveraging ResNet101, InceptionV3, and Xception architectures, have gained prominence for significantly enhancing recognition task outcomes. This study specifically proposes implementing these advanced deep-learning models to classify MODI characters. By harnessing the power of ResNet101, InceptionV3, and Xception algorithms, the aim is to optimize the recognition accuracy and efficiency of the MODI script, making it more accessible and comprehensible for today's youth. This research endeavors to unlock the untapped potential of MODI script as a valuable cultural and educational resource by utilizing state-of-the-art deep learning methodologies.
