Abstract

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a process to recognize the handwritten or printed scanned text with the help of a computer. Segmentation is very important stage of any text recognition system. The problems in segmentation can lead to decrease in segmentation rate and hence recognition rate. A good segmentation technique can improve the recognition rate. This paper deals with the hazards that occur in segmentation of handwritten Hindi text. We also explained the main reasons for some of these problems.
