The classification has beenanalyzed individually with the two extracted features and finally the features were cascaded to increase the accuracy.To recognize the Handwritten English Character using a multilayer perceptron with one hidden layer has been considered. The feature extracted from the handwritten character is Boundary tracing along with Fourier Descriptor.

Handwritings of the different human being are different; therefore it is very difficult to recognize the handwritten characters. The Handwritten Character recognition is an area of pattern recognition that has become the subject of research during the last several decades. Neural system is playing an important role in handwritten character appreciation. several information of character recognition in English have been published but still high recognition accuracy and minimum training time of handwritten English characters using neural network is an open problem. Consequently, it is a great important to develop an automatic handwritten character recognition system for English language [1]. In this work, efforts have been made to develop automatic handwritten character recognition system for English language with high recognition accuracy and minimum training and classification time. Experimental result shows that the approach used in this paper for English character recognition is giving high recognition accuracy and minimum training time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><em>C<\/em><em>ha<\/em><em>r<\/em><em>a<\/em><em>cter Modeling<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">As the English language consists of 26 characters (5 vowels, 21 consonants) and is written from left to right correctly A place of hand written English characters is shown in Fig. 1.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">Fig. 1A Set of Handwritten English Characters<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-720\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gyanvihar.org\/journals\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/18.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"509\" height=\"205\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><em>S<\/em><em>canning and Skeletonization<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">Handwritten characters are scanned and it has been converted into 1024 (32X32) binary pixels.

This scans the binary image until it finds the boundary. The searching follows according to clockwise direction. For a few foreground pixel p, the set of all foreground pixels connected to it is called connected component containing p. The pixel p and its 8-neighbors have been shown in Fig.10. Once a white pixel may be detected, it checks another new white pixel. The tracing follows the boundary automatically. As the first pixel has been found, the program will be assigned the coordinates of that position to indicate that this is an origin of the boundary. The new found pixel would be assigned as a new reference point and starts the eight-neighbor searching.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">This way, the coordinates of the initial point are varied according to the position. As the tracer moves along the boundary of the image, the analogous coordinates will be stored in an array for the computation of Fourier Descriptors.

Handwritings of different person are different; therefore it is very difficult to recognize the handwritten characters. The Handwritten Character recognition is an area of pattern recognition that has become the subject of research during the last some decades. That efforts have been made to develop automatic handwritten character recognition system for English language with high recognition accuracy and minimum training and classification time. Experimental result shows that the approach used in this paper for English character recognition is giving high recognition accuracy and minimum training time.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">PROPOSED METHODOLOGY<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">Main goal of It has been observed in character recognition problems and also in other pattern recognition problems that, in many cases, the distinguishing features are located in small parts of a group of similar characters while the other parts are indistinguishable.\u00a0 These smaller\u00a0 parts containing the\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">distinguishing features can be discriminated with lower\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">order moments in comparison to the order of moments needed for the complete images. We have explored this observation in the recognition of printed characters of the handwritten English characters and found that considerable improvement can be achieved in the recognition of characters through the proposed method. By using skeletonizationprocess , the problems associated to continuous orthogonal moments are eliminated by using a discrete orthogonal basis function. Apart from that mapping is also not required to compute skeletonization process due to the orthogonality property of the skeletonization polynomials.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">CONCLUSIONS<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">For the process, a system for recognizing handwritten English characters has been developed.
