This work presents a matching process to resolve the variable distortions for recognition of handwritten characters. It can tolerate difficult distortions by preserving the topological structure of the character. The unknown character and all templates are represented in advance by features that resemble the receptive fields of visual system. The templates are loaded with flexible and variable features along their skeletons. These flexible features can tolerate local distortions. The global operations, shift, rotation, and scale, are applied to revise the whole template according to certain highly matched features. After these operations, the matched feature in the revised template will overlap its corresponding feature in the unknown character as much as possible. New matching score can be calculated for each feature of the revised template. This kind revision can be operated iteratively. The recognition is accomplished for the template which received the highest whole score. This work illustrates this matching process and its operations. This process indirectly overcomes difficult distortion problems.
