Algorithm for Hand writing recognition

问题:

Is there any specific algorithm for handwriting recognition? The algorithm should recognize the hand written letter.

Any one could help would be greatly appreciated in advance.

Thank you

You can use a genetic algorithm:

You can use Greedy Point Match:

I would suggest reading this paper:

OCR might be a good starting point.

There's the dollar family of recognizers which you can use to recognize single or multistroke gestures (and potentially map that to your alphabet) The lastest member of this family is the $P Recognizer. Here's a starting point: http://depts.washington.edu/aimgroup/proj/dollar/pdollar.html

Google has released an open source OCR engines Tesseract OCR, and It has an Python binding.
Hope this helps.
