Segmentation and coding of Arabic handwritten words
Gerrit Olivier, H. Miled, Katerine Romeo, Y. Lecourtier · 1996
We propose a segmentation method and handwritten word coding method by human observation for automatic document processing in Arabic. The system is composed of three levels. The first level deals with the word segmentation into portions of characters called graphemes. The second level analyses these graphemes and codes the word by a sequence of observations similar to human perception. The results of these two levels are used in the recognition level (the third level) which are presented as perspective in this paper.
