Questions tagged [pattern-recognition]

Pattern recognition is the term given to the science of automating the classification of input into pre-determined categories, or on the other hand, of being able to recognise particular categories of input by their characteristics.

Pattern recognition is the assignment of a label to a given input value. It is a kind of classification task, such that an input is classified to pre-trained class. Pattern recognition is studied in many fields, including psychology, psychiatry, ethology, cognitive science, traffic flow and computer science.

Can a perceptron be used to detect hand-written digits?

Let's say I have a small bitmap which contains a single digit (0..9) in hand writing. Is it possible to detect the digit using a (two-layered) perceptron? Are there other possibilities to detect single digits from bitmaps besides using neural nets?
