Segmentation of Isolated and Touching Characters in Offline Handwritten Gurmukhi Script Recognition

Abstract: Abstract-Segmentation of a word into characters is one of the important challenges in optical character recognition. This is even more challenging when we segment characters in an offline handwritten document. Touching characters make this problem more complex. In this paper, we have applied water reservoir based technique for identification and segmentation of touching characters in handwritten Gurmukhi words. Touching characters are segmented based on reservoir base area points. We could achieve 93.51% accur… Show more

“…Image is scanned, pre-processing of the image is performed to eliminate inconsistency by reshaping and resizing the image. By applying Vertical Projection Line segmentation is performed after that Horizontal Projection is applied for Word segmentation, then by applying headline removal algorithm character is segmented [15][17] [18]. This generated Output is in the form of segmented characters, pre-processing of these characters are performed again and are feed to the CNN for real time prediction of trained model.…”

“…If poured water from top and bottom of the character, the cavity regions of the characters are known as reservoirs. This method cannot use for the broken or overlapping characters [4]. End Detection Algorithm: End detection algorithm is used to find that whether there is any touched character or not.…”

“…Internal segmentation was used to extract isolates letters from cursive script. Internal segmentation was divided in Explicit Segmentation, Implicit Segmentation and Hybrid Segmentation [26,27,28]. Explicit Segmentation was used to find interconnections and cut the image according to the interconnections.…”
