The problem of character recognition may be categorized into two categories-recognition of printed characters and recognition of handwritten characters. Further, the problem of handwritten character recognition is categorized into two categories-recognition of offline handwritten characters and recognition of online characters. This paper presents an extensive overview of research work, which have been done for recognizing the offline handwritten characters using the various approaches like-ANNs, Fuzzy Logic, Genetic algorithms, SVM, KNN Hidden Markov Model (HMM), Bacterial Foraging, Clonal Selection Algorithm etc. and discuss their performance in terms of accuracy of recognizing the characters.
