Abstract :
The present paper discusses an application of fuzzy set theory to handwritten character recognition. A nonmathematical, heuristic approach to structural pattern recognition is used. Entities are given in the form of fuzzy matrix and are processed by fuzzy logic according to the membership values in different categories of features stored. A computer simulation for English alphabets, and some results are presented
