Abstract
In this work we present a self-organization matching approach to
accomplish the recognition of handprinted characters drawn with thick
strokes. This approach is used to flex the unknown handprinted character
toward matching its object characters gradually. The extracted character
features used in the self-organization matching are center loci,
orientation, and major axes of ellipses which fit the inked area of the
patterns. Simulations provide encouraging results using the proposed
method
