A Fuzzy Based Feature Extraction Approach for Handwritten Characters
This paper describes a technique that can be used to generate fuzzy rules to extract the features of handwritten characters. The feature extraction is a complicated problem as different people write the same character in different ways. The development of a technique that can generate the description of handwritten characters is still a challenge for the handwritten recognition systems. The fuzzy logic offers a good opportunity to build a rule-based feature extraction technique for handwritten characters with low computational cost.
Keywords: Feature Extraction, Handwritten Characters, Fuzzy Logic.
