Abstract

Several approaches to recognize the handwritten characters and numerals such as online cursive handwriting and numerals recognition have been proposed. Most of them are based on neural network approaches. In this paper, a technique for continuous recognition of handwritten Devanagari characters is proposed. This approach employs a method based on Spatio-Temporal Artificial Neural Network (STANN). The proposed method is efficient in the field of online handwriting recognition because of the property of STANN to detection of spikes of the continuous input signals. The method is based on different steps of recognition. The results of signals are extracted from the input handwritten characters where the spikes signals are generated by the continuous signals of the input character. A new algorithm using STANN is proposed with results in this paper.
