| Summary: | Cursive script recognition is important in the automation of document processing. Due to the large variation of letter shapes and handwriting styles in unconstrained cursive handwriting, the domain is much more difficult than single character recognition. The uhimate goal of cursive word research is to develop a machine which can read any unconstrained handwritten word with the same recognition capability as humans. If the features people use to recognize cursive words are properly described and used in a cursive word recognition system, it is expected that the computer can imitate what humans can do. |
