In this paper we propose a Conventional Neural Network which recognizes the online Tamil characters. Convolutional Neural Networks are a special kind of multi-layer neural networks. Like almost every other neural networks they are trained with a version of the back-propagation algorithm, where they differ is in the architecture. Convolutional Neural Networks are designed to recognize visual patterns directly from pixel images with minimal preprocessing. They can recognize patterns with extreme variability (such as handwritten characters), and with robustness to distortions and geometric transformations. The existing script-specific post processing schemes improved the re- ognition rate of online Tamil characters. At the first level, features derived at each sample point of the preprocessed character are used to construct a subspace using the 2DPCA algorithm. Recognition of the test sample is performed using a nearest neighbor classifier. This strategy reduces the recognition error among the confused character sets handled, by more than 4%.
