Abstract

In this paper, we present segmentation of handwritten Chinese strings in presence of overlapped and touching characters. A contour tracing based method is proposed to segment the overlapped characters. To segment touching characters, a corner point analysis method is carried out to identify the cutting positions. Experimental results on 564 Chinese character strings captured from postal mail pieces show the effectiveness of the proposed methods on the segmentation of handwritten Chinese character strings.
