Abstract :
Numeral recognition is the process to classify the given character according to the predefined character class. This paper proposed a methodology for recognizing Bangla handwritten numerals which are based on fuzzy logic theory due to its low computational requirement. Every numeral is segmented and several features are extracted for each segment. In this paper, we use unique fuzzy rule base for each numeral. We have tested our engine for Bangla numerals considering various writing style and got more than 80% recognition accuracy.
