A Novel Approach to Recognition of English Characters Using Artificial Neural Network

Prerna Kakkar, Umesh Dutta

This paper presents an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based approach for the recognition of English characters in the presence of noise. Noise has been regarded as one of the major issue that degrades the performance of character recognition system. In order to overcome this limitation, the back propagation (BP based ANN is designed for the English character recognition in presence of noise. The recognition system is designed and tested in MATLAB under different noise levels. Experimental results indicate that the proposed approach can obtain very high recognition rate for all English alphabets in the presence of noise.
