Abstract
Handwriting has continued to persist as a mean of communication and recording information in day-to-day life even with the introduction of new technologies. Handwritten information can be used as computer input once it is converted to digital form. This paper focus on Urdu online handwriting recognition system that converts user hand written information into Urdu text. The working of recognition system is based on analytical approach to segmentation for feature extraction, rule based slant analysis for slant removal and tree based dictionary search for classification. The proposed tree search technique reduces the search space up to 96.2% and is therefore significantly faster than searching techniques, in which we have to process the whole dictionary to come up with the correct answer

An on-line handwriting-recognition system based on unreliable modules.

TL;DR: The present paper discusses the design of three of these processing blocks: normalization, allograph recognition, and learning and brieey speciies feature extraction, which will result in features extracted from each stroke in the handwriting pattern being more uniform within a writer and even between writers.
