Opis

Electrical diagram is foundation of studies in electrical science. A circuit diagram convey many information about the system. Behind any device there are plenty of electrical ingredients which perform their specific tasks, today all the electrical software tools failed to effectively convert the information automatically from a circuit image diagram to digital form. Hence electrical engineers should manually enter all information into computers, and this process takes time and bring errors with high probability. Moreover, when the diagram is hand drawn, the problem is more complicated for any electrical analysis. Thus, in this paper we propose a new method using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to make a machine that can directly read the electrical symbols from a hand drawn circuit image. The recognition process involves two steps: first step is feature extraction using shape based features, and the second one is a classification procedure using ANN through a back propagation algorithm. The ANN was trained and tested with different hand drawn electrical images.
