Selection of classifiers and feature extraction methods has a prime role in achieving best possible classification accuracy in character recognition system. Issues of character recognition system related to choice of classifiers and feature extraction methods can be resolved through these objectives. In this proposed work an efficient Support Vector Machine based off-line handwritten character recognition system has been developed. The experiments have been performed using well known standard database acquired from CEDAR, also seven different approaches of feature extraction techniques have been proposed to construct the final feature vector. It is evident from the experimental results that the performance of Support Vector Machine outperforms other state of art techniques reported in literature.
