In this paper, we present a comparison between methods of learning-classification, the first one is called Hidden Model Markov (HMM) which is based on a unsupervised learning, and the second one called Support Vector Machine (SVM) which is based on a supervised learning. Those techniques are used for printed Latin numerals recognition, in different situation: rotated, resized and noisy. In the pre-processing phase we use the thresholding technic and in the features extraction we use the Hu invariants moments (HIM). The simulation results demonstrate that SVM is more robust than the HMM technic in the printed Latin numerals recognition.
Author Keywords: The noisy printed Latin numerals, the thresholding technique, the Hu invariant moments, the Hidden Model Markov, the Support Vector Machine.

Abstract
In this paper, we present a comparison between methods of learning-classification, the first one is called Hidden Model Markov (HMM) which is based on a unsupervised learning, and the second one called Support Vector Machine (SVM) which is based on a supervised learning. Those techniques are used for printed Latin numerals recognition, in different situation: rotated, resized and noisy. In the pre-processing phase we use the thresholding technic and in the features extraction we use the Hu invariants moments (HIM). The simulation results demonstrate that SVM is more robust than the HMM technic in the printed Latin numerals recognition.
Author Keywords: The noisy printed Latin numerals, the thresholding technique, the Hu invariant moments, the Hidden Model Markov, the Support Vector Machine.
