I have done a OCR application for handwritten normal characters.For the segmentation of characters I have used histogram profile method. That successfully works for normal English characters.
I have used horizontal projection for line segmentation and vertical projection for character segmentation.
To segment lines of cursive hand written article I can use horizontal projection as previous. But I can't use same methodology for cursive English character segmentation since they are merged each other and also slanted. Can anyone please help me with a way to segment cursive characters.Thank You very much.
