Abstract

Research in character recognition is an old application in the area of pattern recognition and has attracted many researchers during the last few decades. Handwritten character recognition (HCR) is of two types namely, Online and Offline. The recognition accuracy for HCR is less than 60% as per the literature survey. Also the non existence of standard database for Indian languages is another reason for motivation of this work. This work describes Offline HCR by extracting features using 2D FFT and using the support vector machines for Telugu documents. The best percentage recognition accuracy for Telugu handwritten characters is 71%.
