M. Ravi Kumar, R. Pradeep, B. S. Puneeth Kumar, Prasad Babu . A Simple Text-line Segmentation Method for Handwritten Documents. National Conference on Advanced Computing and Communications 2012. NCACC, 1 (August 2012), 46-61.
Text line segmentation is an important step because inaccurately segmented text lines will cause errors in the recognition stage. . The nature of handwriting makes the process of text line segmentation very challenging. Text characteristics can vary in font, size, orientation, alignment, color, contrast, and background information. These variations turn the process of word detection complex and difficult. Since handwritten text can vary greatly depending on the user skills, disposition and cultural background. In this work we have proposed the method which works on the different intensity values for extracting the text-lines.
