Abstract
A new approach to the segmentation of handwritten text is presented that is based on approximating a binary raster image with a set of polygons and building a continuous skeleton of those polygons. Polygons and skeletons are then used in extraction of lines, removing of spots and artifacts, extraction of words from lines and extraction of strokes from words.
