A character recognition system receives an unknown character and recognizes the character based on a pre-trained recognition model. Prior to recognizing the character, the character recognition system may pre-process the character to rotate the character to a normalized orientation. By rotating the character to a normalized orientation in both training and recognition stages, the character recognition system releases the pre-trained recognition model from considering character prototypes in different orientations and thereby speeds up recognition of the unknown character. In one example, the character recognition system rotates the character to the normalized orientation by aligning a line between a sum of coordinates of starting points and a sum of coordinates of ending points of each stroke of the character with a normalized direction.
