MATHEMATICAL CONCEPT OF UNCONSTRAINED HANDWRITTEN TEXT SEGMENTATION PROCESS
Abstract
To take care of variability involved in the writing style of different individuals
in this paper we propose a robust scheme to segment unconstrained handwritten texts into
primitives, which can be easily recognized later. While most similar works concentrated
on searching for middle line of the character we decided to extract an outer line. This approach
leads to much simpler implementation and acceptable quality of segmentation.
