Abstract

Handwritten digit recognition is one of the most important issues in the area of pattern recognition researches. There are many uses of handwritten digit recognition such as Bank check processing, sorting postal mail form, phone number data entry are common applications of automatic digit recognition. The sentiment of the problem deceits within the capability to develop an efficient algorithm that can recognize handwritten digits. Usually, these digits are normally found from scanning documents with digital devices. Typically storing handwritten digits such as phone number, bank account number, postal numbers and so is extremely troublesome with human intervention. An efficient handwritten digit recognition can eradicate this hazard. To eliminate the difficulties of recognizing handwritten digits, this paper proposes an approach using machine learning algorithms. The objective of this research is to present a reliable and effective approach to recognize handwritten digits. Several supervised machine learning classifiers were employed for the recognition and their accuracy are compared and discussed. The highest 97.07% accuracy is found by the Random Forest classifier.
