✦ Synopsis

A new segmentation method for segmenting connected handwritten digit strings is presented. Unlike traditional methods where segmentation points are uniquely determined to cut the piece of stroke joining the connected numerals, our approach is one of identifying regions which serve as potential segmentation points. The regions are identified by a thorough analysis of the trajectory of strokes..

In this paper, we develop a handwritten numeral recognition descriptor using multiwavelets and neural networks. We ΓΏrst trace the contour of the numeral, then normalize and resample the contour so that it is translation-and scale-invariant. We then perform multiwavelet orthonormal shell expansion on
