Handwriting Recognition Dataset

Dataset Description

This dataset contains a collection of handwritten text images designed to improve optical character recognition (OCR) and text recognition models. Each image is accompanied by a transcription of the text, which reads:
"AI learns from data. Your handwriting helps machines read text better. Write clearly; good handwriting boosts AI accuracy. This small act aids AI research. Thanks for your support!"
The dataset aims to support AI research by providing high-quality handwritten samples to train and evaluate machine learning models.

Dataset Structure

Images: Handwritten text images (e.g., .png, .jpg) stored in the images/ directory.
Metadata: A metadata.csv file linking each image to its transcription. Example: file_name,text
