Abstract :
In this paper, we have shown that recognition of machine printed characters can be modeled around the geometry of an alphabet. This geometry is used as a basis for recognizing various characters. The present technique can be implemented for any language, provided, the alphabets of the respective language are made up of geometrical shapes, which is typically true.
