Introduction
• Data mining is a powerful method and it’s techniques are very
useful for character recognition from different patterns or
images and textual data sets also.
• Techniques that performs Handwritten recognition is able to
detect and acquire characters from paper documents, images
and other sources.
• There exists various data mining techniques which are used for
Handwritten Character Recognition, from them Artificial Neural
Network (ANN) is a great successor for doing this job.

Problem Definition
• Identifying English handwritten characters

Problem definition (continue)
• Current Approaches
 OCR – What it is?
 Optical Character Recognition or OCR is a technology that enables us
to convert different types of documents, such as scanned paper
document, PDF files or images captured by a digital camera into
editable and searchable data.
• But, OCR isn’t a complete solution/success. So, there are some
solutions given below,
 Apply new features extraction Technique
 Using Data Mining Techniques (Artificial Neural Network)
 Expected 100% accuracy of character identification.

Classification of Character Recognition
• CRS consists of various features such as: Geometric blur, Spin image, Patch descriptors. Shape
contexts, feature transform and required filters. These features are extracted at training time of the
system.
• Features are selected to learn maximum knowledge about the given characters to achieve high
accuracy.
• There are various Machine Learning techniques such as KNN, random forest, support vector
machine and CNN are used for extraction of text from various scenes.
• The actual training of the machine is to provide Artificial Intelligence (AI) which automatically learn
and improve efficiency, and is called Machine learning.
• The machine is focused on developing computer programs to access and use data. Artificial Neural
Networks (ANN) is learning model that is used in machine learning.
• All knowledge that is acquired by animal or human neural network is simulated by Artificial
Neural Networks (ANN).
• Benefit of this learning model is that they are very useful in automating the tasks in which the
decision of a human being is too long or humiliated.

Image Processing
• Image Processing is a technique is used to
manipulate the digitized images to extract
meaningful knowledge from it.
• Image processing contains following steps shown in
this right side Figure.
 Firstly handwritten document was digitized.
 After that preprocessing, segmentation and feature
extraction is performed.
 After feature extraction classification is performed
using machine learning techniques along with data
mining technique to recognizing character .

Literature Survey
• Available literature conveys that various approaches have been made in order to
accomplish the task of character recognition.
• In about all the soft computing approaches Artificial Neural Network (ANN) has
been a backend of character classification. This is due to its faster computation.
• The methods used in front end could be (a) statistical approaches (b) kernel
methods (c) support methods or (d) hybrid of fuzzy logic controllers.
• A detailed analysis of some methods is given in Table below which shows the
References, approach and its corresponding accuracy.

Proposed Methodology & Results
• It should be mentioned that the proposed algorithm is currently under the rigorous testing
by the authors.
• However ,they have tested the developed algorithm with 5 capital letters and 5 small English
character alphabets. The result is given in Table below.

Results (Continue)
• Two main patterns decide the performance of the algorithm,
 Success Rate
 False Rejection Rate (FRR)
• The success rate defines the rate of recognition whereas the FRR defines the ratio
between the unrecognized patterns and the total number of testing patterns.
• This plot below shows the relative success rate versus the false rejection of the
tested patterns.

Conclusion
• This work proposed an algorithm for Hand Written English
alphabet pattern recognition.
• The algorithm is based on principle of Artificial Neural
Network (ANN). However, the algorithm was tested with 5
capital letters set and 5 small letters set.
• The result and discussion section showed that the developed
algorithm works well with maximum recognition rate if
92.59% and minimum False Rejection Rate (FRR) of 0%.

Improvement & Future Work
• Make the system more font independent.
• Try different recognition algorithm such HMM(Hidden Markov
Model).
• Improve the efficiency of the feature extraction method.
• Improve the system to indentify any other characters.
