Segmentation Algorithm for Unconstrained Handwritten Numeral Strings in Bank Check Reader System
Chuang Zhang · Beijing Youdian Xueyuan xuebao · 2006
How to improve the strings segmentation process was investigated.The components connected were detected based on isolated components analysis,and the length estimation of the components using the feature of lower contours was discussed,the problem of segmenting overlapping or touching characters settled by the improved drop-falling algorithm was also studied in details.This method has been incorporated into a complete bank check character recognition system.It shows promising results.
