Persian handwritten digit recognition is one of the important topics of image processing which significantly considered by researchers due to its many applications. The most important challenges in Persian handwritten digit recognition is the existence of various patterns in Persian digit writing that makes the feature extraction step to be more complicated.Since the handcraft feature extraction methods are complicated processes and their performance level are not stable, most of the recent studies have concentrated on proposing a suitable method for automatic feature extraction. In this paper, an automatic method based on machine learning is proposed for high-level feature extraction from Persian digit images by using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). After that, a non-linear multi-class Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier is used for data classification instead of fully connected layer in final layer of CNN. The proposed method has been applied to HODA dataset and obtained 99.56% of recognition rate. Experimental results are comparable with previous state-of-the-art methods

This paper presents an effective solution based on speech recognition to provide elderly people, patients and disabled people with an easy control system. The goal is to build a low-cost system based on speech recognition to easily access Internet of Things (IoT) devices installed in smart homes and hospitals without relying on a centralized supervisory system. The proposed system used a Raspberry Pi board to control home appliances through wireless with smartphones. The main purpose of this system is to facilitate interactions between the user and home appliances through IoT communications based on speech commands. The proposed framework contribution uses a hybrid Support Vector Machine (SVM) with a Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) algorithm to enhance the speech recognition process. The proposed solution is a machine learning-based system for controlling smart devices through speech commands with an accuracy of 97%. The results helped patients and elderly people to access and control IoT devices that are compatible with our system using speech recognition. The proposed speech recognition system is flexible with scalability and availability in adapting to existing smart IoT devices, and it provides privacy in managing patient devices. The research provides an effective method to integrate our systems among medical institutions to help elderly people and patients.
