This paper presents a two-stage handwriting recognizer for classification of isolated characters that exploits explicit knowledge on characters' shapes and execution plans. The first stage performs prototype extraction of the training data using a Fuzzy ARTMAP based method. These prototypes are able to improve the performance of the second stage consisting of LVQ codebooks by means of providing the aforementioned explicit knowledge on shapes and execution plans. The proposed recognizer has been tested on the UNIPEN international database achieving an average recognition rate of 90.15%, comparable to that reached by humans and other recognizers found in literature. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2002.
