This paper deals with the recognition of handwritten Malayalam character using wavelet energy feature (WEF) and extreme learning machine (ELM). The wavelet energy (WE) is a new and robust parameter, and is derived using wavelet transform. It can reduce the influences of different types of noise at different levels. WEF can reflect the WE distribution of characters in several directions at different scales. To a non oscillating pattern, the amplitudes of wavelet coefficients increase when the scale of wavelet decomposition increase. WE of different decomposition levels have different powers to discriminate the character images. These features constitute patterns of handwritten characters for classification. The traditional learning algorithms of the different classifiers are far slower than required. So we have used an extremely fast leaning algorithm called ELM for single hidden layer feed forward networks (SLFN), which randomly chooses the input weights and analytically determines the output weights of SLFN. This algorithm learns much faster than traditional popular learning algorithms for feed forward neural networks. This feature vector, classifier combination gave good recognition accuracy at level 6 of the wavelet decomposition.
