Cursive character recognition – a character segmentation method using projection profile-based technique
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper reports the results of a study on a first sight decision tree algorithm for cursive script recognition based on the use of histogram as a projection profile technique. A postal code image data scanned is converted in a 2-dimension matrix representation to be used with a set of algorithms to provide full range segmentation. The results, based on this approach, are quite satisfactory for first stage classifier.

متن کاملSegmentation of Offline Handwritten Bengali Script
Character segmentation has long been one of the most critical areas of optical character recognition process. Through this operation, an image of a sequence of characters, which may be connected in some cases, is decomposed into sub-images of individual alphabetic symbols. In this paper, segmentation of cursive handwritten script of world’s fourth popular language, Bengali, is considered. Unlik...
