There are many applications of the handwritten character recognition (HCR) approach still exist. Reading postal addresses in various states contains different languages in any union government like India. Bank check amounts and signature verification is one of the important application of HCR in the automatic banking system in all developed countries. The optical character recognition of the documents is comparing with handwriting documents by a human. This OCR is used for translation purposes of characters from various types of files such as image, word document files. The main aim of this research article is to provide the solution for various handwriting recognition approaches such as touch input from the mobile screen and picture file. The recognition approaches performing with various methods that we have chosen in artificial neural networks and statistical methods so on and to address nonlinearly divisible issues. This research article consisting of various approaches to compare and recognize the handwriting characters from the image documents. Besides, the research paper is comparing statistical approach support vector machine (SVM) classifiers network method with statistical, template matching, structural pattern recognition, and graphical methods. It has proved Statistical SVM for OCR system performance that is providing a good result that is configured with machine learning approach. The recognition rate is higher than other methods mentioned in this research article. The proposed model has tested on a training section that contained various stylish letters and digits to learn with a higher accuracy level. We obtained test results of 91% of accuracy to recognize the characters from documents. Finally, we have discussed several future tasks of this research further.

In this paper, a new feature fusion method for Handwritten Character Recognition based on single tri-axis accelerometer has been proposed. The process can be explained as follows: firstly, the short-time energy (STE) features are extracted from accelerometer data. Secondly, the Frequency-domain feature namely Fast Fourier transform Coefficient (FFT) are also extracted. Finally, these two categories features are fused together and the principal component analysis (PCA) is employed to reduce the dimension of the fusion feature. Recognition of the gestures is performed with Multi-class Support Vector Machine. The average recognition results of ten Arabic numerals using the proposed fusion feature are 84.6%, which are better than only using STE or FFT feature. The performance of experimental results show that gesture-based interaction can be used as a novel human computer interaction for consumer electronics and mobile device.
