AI-Powered Handwriting Recognition with Machine Learning Techniques. AI-Powered Handwriting Recognition with Machine Learning Techniques

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a powerful tool for extracting text from images, and with the rise of multimodal AI models, it's now easier than ever to implement locally. In this guide, we'll show you how to build a professional OCR application using Llama 3.2-Vision, Ollama for the backend, and Streamlit for the front end.PrerequisitesBefore we start, ensure you have the following:1. Python 3.10 or higher installed.2. Anaconda (Optional)3. Ollama installed for local model hosting. Downl

In this article, we carry out handwritten text recognition using OCR. We fine tune the TrOCR model on the GNHK dataset.
