Summary :

This paper compares some popular character recognition techniques which have been proposed until today. 17 feature extraction methods and 4 neural network based recognition processes were used in handwritten numerals (postal codes) recognition. It was found that Weighted Direction Index Histogram, Peripheral Direction Contributivity Function and Expansion Cell feature extractions gave good results. As for the neural network recognition process, CombNET- and multi layer neural network showed good performances.
