The invention discloses a handwritten Uyghur
character recognition method based on classifier integration, which belongs to the
pattern recognition field and includes steps of: pre-
processing handwritten Uyghur characters, extracting feature vectors of the Uyghur characters by aid of directional line elements, respectively using a modified quadratic
discriminant function (MODF) classifier and a back propagation (BP)
neural network classifier to classify the feature vectors of the Uyghur characters, and integrating classification recognition results, namely an MODF
confidence value set and a BP neural network
confidence value set, wherein the step of integrating especially includes achieving integrating through the weighted sum of two confidence values to obtain a final
confidence value set and selecting the maximum confidence value to serve as the recognition result. Two classifiers are used in the method, and recognition rate is improved due to result integrating. The handwritten Uyghur
character recognition method based on classifier integration has the advantages of being good in
algorithm performance, strong in instantaneity, high in reliability and high in recognition rate, is mainly applied to a mobile platform, namely a
cell phone, to achieve handwritten Uyghur
character recognition, lays a foundation for Uyghur character
informatization processing, and provides a new method and an application way for Uyghur character cultural exchange.
