BrahmiGAN

This dataset was developed as part of our research project titled "A Novel GAN-Transformer Framework for Early Brahmi Script Generation and Recognition", published in Engineering and Applied Science Research (EASR), Vol. 53, No. 2, 2026. The dataset contains 21,195 synthetic images of 23 Early Brahmi letter classes, generated using BrahmiGAN — a novel GAN architecture incorporating residual connections, dual attention mechanisms, and multi-scale feature extraction.
