Off-line Character Segmentation Technique for Handwritten Cursive Word – A Survey
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a survey of segmentation handwritten cursive word images into individual characters. It provides a comprehensive review of segmentation rates and descriptions of test data for the approaches discussed. Techniques that used to decide segmentation points describe in detail. Then the performances are compared in two categories based on number of words and existence of learning system.

Off-line Cursive Handwritten Word Segmentation, A new approach
The segmentation of off-line cursive handwritten word is an important step in cursive handwriting recognition. In this paper a new, simple yet effective approach is proposed. Proposed technique is based on the analysis of the ligatures of the characters in the cursive word. The only preprocessing is to skeleton the word to allow variations in pen thickness and tilt in writing. There is no const...

The last two decades witnessed some advances in the development of an Arabic character recognition (CR) system. Arabic CR faces technical problems not encountered in any other language that make Arabic CR systems achieve relatively low accuracy and retards establishing them as market products. We propose the basic stages towards a system that attacks the problem of recognizing online Arabic cur...
متن کاملA New Character Segmentation Approach for Off-Line Cursive Handwritten Words
Character Segmentation is the most crucial step for any OCR (Optical Character Recognition) System. The selection of segmentation algorithm being used is the key factor in deciding the accuracy of OCR system. If there is a good segmentation of characters, the recognition accuracy will also be high. Segmentation of words into characters becomes very difficult due to the cursive and unconstrained...
متن کاملAn improved offline handwritten character segmentation algorithm for Bangla script
Effective segmentation of offline handwritten word images of unconstrained handwritten Bangla script is a challenging problem in Optical Character Recognition (OCR) application. Presence of a continuous horizontal line called ‘Matra’ is an important feature of this script. However, in unconstrained cursive handwriting, Matra can be wavy or discontinuous, makes the problem of segmentation diffic...
