Abstract

In the present chapter, the widely common problem of handwritten character recognition has been tackled with multiresolution technique using discrete wavelet transform and artificial neural networks. The technique has been tested and found to be more accurate and economic in respect of the recognition process time of the system. Features of the handwritten character images are extracted by discrete wavelet transform used with appropriate level of multiresolution technique, then the artificial neural networks is trained by extracted features. The unknown input handwritten character images are recognized by trained artificial neural networks system. The proposed method provides good recognition accuracy for handwritten characters with less training time, less no. of samples and less no. of iterations.
