Abstract

In this paper we present a comparison between SOM (Self-Organization Map) neural network and Fuzzy Knearest Neighbor algorithms and their application to handwriting Tifinagh character recognition.The Box approach proposed in [1] is used for features extraction. Experimentation is carried out on a limited database of nearly 200 samples. The results showed that Fuzzy K-Nearest Neighbor had a very good performance.
