Abstract :
An online handwritten character recognition algorithm, suitable for the home use computer, was developed. A character, written on a digitizing tablet, is expressed as a directional angle sequence. In order to recognize a quickly written multi-stroke character, the character pattern is converted into a single interconnected stroke pattern. The recognition is carried out using dynamic programming based pattern matching technique.
