Convolutional Neural Network [1] for Offline Handwriting Chinese Character Recognition.

• Library required: Theano on Python
• Data from [CASIA Online and Offline Chinese Handwriting Databases] (http://www.nlpr.ia.ac.cn/databases/handwriting/Download.html)
  • "HWDB1.1trn_gnt" for training data
  • "HWDB1.1tst_gnt" for validation data
  • "Offline Character Data" for testing data
• GPU acceleration is not implemented
