Abstract :
This paper provides a brief review of the state-of-the-art of neural networks in off-line text recognition. We discuss the role that neural networks have played in text recognition. We also assess the state of the art of neural networks in character and word recognition. Despite the success of neural networks in character and word recognition, there are still many challenging problems
