A New Deep Learning-Based Mobile Application for Komering Character Recognition

The Komering script, also known as the Ulu script, is one of the scripts that must be conserved in the South Sumatra region. Some historical manuscripts are composed in the Komering script, which requires transliteration. Using technology, this study intends to preserve and revitalize the Komering script. The application technology developed can assist in reading documents written in the Komering script. The produced mobile application technology product recognizes images using deep learning technology. The Convolutional Neural Network classification algorithm is used to categorize Komering characters. The trained deep learning model can classify 336 Komering characters with a 99% accuracy rate. The learned deep learning model is subsequently incorporated into the Android application to facilitate the program's portability.
