The paper describes a Neural Network and Multiple Expert System Model for Conflict Resolution of Unconstrained Handwritten Numerals. The basic recognizer is the Neural Network. The Neu-ral Network classifier is a combination of Modified Self-organizing Map (MSOM) and Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ). It will solve most of the cases, but will fail in certain confusing cases. The Multiple Exper...
