Abstract :
Handwritten character recognition has various potential in the field of document image processing. It is one of the important aspects for systems like handwritten optical character recognizer, writer identification/verification, automatic document sorter etc. In Bangla only few attempts are made towards character recognition. In this current study a relatively new attempt is made towards finding the dependency of writer information on character recognition by varying the inputs. This study will provide a better understanding of the input data for character recognition. Also it will help to know the Bangla characters better for writer identification/verification. Here, highest accuracy of 100% is achieved in case of numeral 7 applying LibSVM classifier.
