ABSTRACT
In this paper, the texture symmetry/non symmetry factor has been exploited to get the script texture by using the Bi Wavelants which give the factor of symmetry/non symmetry in terms of the third cumulant and the Bi-spectra gives the quadratically coupled frequencies. The envelope of Bi-spectra (Bi-Wavelant) provides an accurate behavior of the symmetry/non symmetry factor of the script texture. Classification has been better performed by SVM with training set of roots of the envelope found using the Newton-Raphson technique. The method could successfully identify 8 Indian scripts like Devanagari, Urdu, Gujrati, Telugu, Assamese, Gurmukhi, Kannada, and Bangla. The method can segment any kind of document with very good results. The identification results are excellent.
