Abstract :
A new multi-expert handwritten classification system has been introduced. It is shown that an intelligent combination of decisions taken by multiple experts can greatly enhance the final classification performance. A logical structure for the formation of a practical multi-expert hierarchical structure implementing multiple decision combination is presented and its performance is evaluated on both numeral and alpha-numeric handwritten character datasets
