Abstract: Character recognition technique, associates a symbolic identity with the image of the character, is an important area in pattern recognition and image processing. The principal idea here is to convert raw images (scanned from document, typed, pictured etcetera) into editable text like html, doc, txt or other formats. There is a very limited number of Bangla Character recognition system, if available they cant recognize the whole alphabet set. Motivated by this, this paper demonstrates a MATLAB based Character Recognition system from printed Bangla writings. It can also compare the characters of one image file to another one. Processing steps here involved binarization, noise removal and segmentation in various levels, features extraction and recognition.
