BanglaWriting: A multi-purpose offline Bangla handwriting dataset

ABSTRACT: This article presents a Bangla handwriting dataset named BanglaWriting that contains single-page handwritings of 260 individuals of different personalities and ages. Each page includes bounding-boxes that bounds each word, along with the unicode representation of the writing. This dataset contains 21,234 words and 32,787 characters in total. Moreover, this dataset includes 5,470 unique words of Bangla vocabulary. Apart from the usual words, the dataset comprises 261 comprehensible overwriting and 450 handwritten strikes and mistakes. All of the bounding-boxes and word labels are manually-generated. The dataset can be used for complex optical character/word recognition, writer identification, handwritten word segmentation, and word generation. Furthermore, this dataset is suitable for extracting age-based and gender-based variation of handwriting.

CBD2023: A Hypercomplex Bangla Handwriting Character Recognition Data for Hierarchical Class Expansion.

Project description:Object recognition technology has made significant strides, but recognizing handwritten Bangla characters (including symbols, compound forms, etc.) remains a challenging problem due to the prevalence of cursive writing and many ambiguous characters. The complexity and variability of the Bangla script and individual's unique handwriting styles make it difficult to achieve satisfactory performance for practical applications, and the best existing recognizers are far less effective than those developed for English alpha-numeric characters. Compared to other major languages, there are limited options for recognizing handwritten Bangla characters. This research has described a new dataset to improve the accuracy and effectiveness of handwriting recognition systems for the Bengali language spoken by over 200 million people worldwide. This dataset aims to investigate and recognize Bangla handwritten characters, focusing on enlarging the recognized character classes. To achieve this, a new challenging dataset for handwriting recognition is introduced, collected from numerous students' handwriting from two institutions.

MoVi: A large multi-purpose human motion and video dataset.

Project description:Large high-quality datasets of human body shape and kinematics lay the foundation for modelling and simulation approaches in computer vision, computer graphics, and biomechanics. Creating datasets that combine naturalistic recordings with high-accuracy data about ground truth body shape and pose is challenging because different motion recording systems are either optimized for one or the other. We address this issue in our dataset by using different hardware systems to record partially overlapping information and synchronized data that lend themselves to transfer learning. This multimodal dataset contains 9 hours of optical motion capture data, 17 hours of video data from 4 different points of view recorded by stationary and hand-held cameras, and 6.6 hours of inertial measurement units data recorded from 60 female and 30 male actors performing a collection of 21 everyday actions and sports movements. The processed motion capture data is also available as realistic 3D human meshes. We anticipate use of this dataset for research on human pose estimation, action recognition, motion modelling, gait analysis, and body shape reconstruction.

Automatic Gender and Age Classification from Offline Handwriting with Bilinear ResNet.

Project description:This work focuses on automatic gender and age prediction tasks from handwritten documents. This problem is of interest in a variety of fields, such as historical document analysis and forensic investigations. The challenge for automatic gender and age classification can be demonstrated by the relatively low performances of the existing methods. In addition, despite the success of CNN for gender classification, deep neural networks were never applied for age classification. The published works in this area mostly concentrate on English and Arabic languages. In addition to Arabic and English, this work also considers Hebrew, which was much less studied. Following the success of bilinear Convolutional Neural Network (B-CNN) for fine-grained classification, we propose a novel implementation of a B-CNN with ResNet blocks. To our knowledge, this is the first time the bilinear CNN is applied for writer demographics classification. In particular, this is the first attempt to apply a deep neural network for the age classification. We perform experiments on documents from three benchmark datasets written in three different languages and provide a thorough comparison with the results reported in the literature. B-ResNet was top-ranked in all tasks. In particular, B-ResNet outperformed other models on KHATT and QUWI datasets on gender classification.

BDSL 49: A comprehensive dataset of Bangla sign language.

Project description:Language is a method by which individuals express their thoughts. Each language has its own alphabet and numbers. Oral and written communication are both effective means of human interaction. However, each language has a sign language equivalent. Hearing-impaired and/or nonverbal individuals communicate through sign language. BDSL is the abbreviation for the Bangla sign language. The dataset contains images of hand signs in Bangla. The collection comprises 49 individual sign language images of the Bengali alphabet. BDSL49 is a set of 29,490 images with 49 labels. During data collection, images of fourteen distinct adults, each with a unique appearance and context, were captured. During data preparation, numerous strategies have been utilized to reduce noise. This dataset is available for free to researchers. Using techniques such as machine learning, computer vision, and deep learning, they are able to develop automated systems. Moreover, two models were applied to this dataset. The first is for detection, and the second is for identification.

BAAD: A multipurpose dataset for automatic Bangla offensive speech recognition.

Project description:In spite of being the fifth most spoken native language in the world, Bangla has barely received any attention in the domain of audio and speech recognition. This article represents a speech dataset of Bengali Abusive Words with some non-abusive wors which are very close to the abusive ones. In this work, a multipurpose dataset is presented to recognize automatic slang speech for Bangla language, which was prepared by collection, annotation, and refinement of data. It consists of 114 slang words and 43 non-slang words with 6100 audio clips. For the collection of slang words, 60 native speakers and for non-abusive words, 23 native speakers participated who were, speaking in various dialects from over 20 districts of Bangladesh, and 10 university students participated to evaluate this dataset including annotation and refinements. Researchers can use this dataset to develop an automatic Bengali Slang speech recognition system, and also it can be used as a new benchmark for creating speech recognition-based machine learning models. This dataset can be enrich-ed further, and some background noise in the dataset can be used to simulate a more real-world scenario if desired. Otherwise, these noises could also be removed.

BdSL47: A complete depth-based Bangla sign alphabet and digit dataset.

Project description:Sign Language Recognition (SLR) is crucial for enabling communication between the deaf-mute and hearing communities. Nevertheless, the development of a comprehensive sign language dataset is a challenging task due to the complexity and variations in hand gestures. This challenge is particularly evident in the case of Bangla Sign Language (BdSL), where the limited availability of depth datasets impedes accurate recognition. To address this issue, we propose BdSL47, an open-access depth dataset for 47 one-handed static signs (10 digits, from ০ to ৯; and 37 letters, from অ to ँ) of BdSL. The dataset was created using the MediaPipe framework for extracting depth information. To classify the signs, we developed an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model with a 63-node input layer, a 47-node output layer, and 4 hidden layers that included dropout in the last two hidden layers, an Adam optimizer, and a ReLU activation function. Based on the selected hyperparameters, the proposed ANN model effectively learns the spatial relationships and patterns from the depth-based gestural input features and gives an F1 score of 97.84 %, indicating the effectiveness of the approach compared to the baselines provided. The availability of BdSL47 as a comprehensive dataset can have an impact on improving the accuracy of SLR for BdSL using more advanced deep-learning models.

ToxLex_bn: A curated dataset of bangla toxic language derived from Facebook comment.

Project description:Toxic Language in social media is a newly emerging virtual disorder of human society. Detecting toxic language is an NLP task that requires a Dataset of utterances [1]. For the Bangla language, very few datasets have been developed on toxicity or similar concepts [2]. A dataset has been developed using user-generated content from Facebook and that will cover the demographic and thematic distribution of Bangla toxic language generated on the web. Therefore, 2207590 comments have been collected, annotated, and thus extract about 1959 unique bigrams as utterances, which were considered as base-entry of a toxic language dataset. The core derivatives of the dataset are bigram-based wordlists, which are annotated inductively and divided into 08 thematic classes that give some ideas on toxicity variations found in the Bengali community. These thematic classes cover political hate speech [3] and misogynist bullies dominantly. However, these thematic labels will serve as classifiers in the text classification process through machine learning. In addition to the thematic classification labels, this dataset includes some additional features such as imprecise meanings in English, IPA transliteration, real occurrences in the source pages, spelling standards, and degree of toxicity. As this is a dataset of utterance, it has de-identified and anonymous entries and no difficulties for public disclosure. Therefore, we consider this dataset as Toxic lexicon (Toxlex) as an exhaustive wordlist that is essentially a curated value-added and analyzed dataset which can be used as classifier material to detect toxicity in social media.
