The Anatomy of Bangla OCR System for Printed Texts using Back Propagation Neural Network
This paper is based on Bangla (National Language of Bangladesh) Optical Character Recognition process for printed texts and its steps using Back Propagation Neural Network. Bangla character recognition is very important field of research because Bangla is most popular language in the Indian subcontinent. Pre-processing steps that follows are Image Acquisition, binarization, background removal, noise elimination, skew angle detection and correction, noise removal, line, word and character segmentations. In the post processing steps various features are extracted by applying DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) from segmented characters. The segmented characters are then fed into a three layer feed forward Back Propagation Neural Network for training. Finally this network is used to recognize printed Bangla scripts.
WPA 2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) Security Enhancement: Analysis & Improvement
WPA and WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is a certification program developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance to indicate compliance with the security protocol created by the WiFi Alliance to secure wireless networks. The Alliance defined the protocol in response to several weaknesses researchers had found in the previous system: Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP). Many sophisticated authentication and encryption techniques have been embedded into WPA2 but it still facing a lot of challenging situations. In this paper we discuss the benefit of WPA2, its vulnerability & weakness .This paper also present solutions or suggestions which will improve Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2) protocol.
