# ✍️ Handwritten Line Text Recognition (HTR)
This project implements a **Handwritten Line Text Recognition (HTR)** system using Deep Learning with TensorFlow.
The model is based on a **CRNN (CNN + BiLSTM + CTC)** architecture and can recognize handwritten English text lines from images.
Deployed on Hugging Face Spaces using Gradio.

The model:
- Extracts visual features using Convolutional layers
- Models sequence dependencies with Bidirectional LSTM
- Uses CTC decoding to predict variable-length text
