Segmentation of touching character printed Lanna script using junction point
Rujipan Kosarat1, Nualsawat Hiransakolwong2.
In the northern part of Thailand since 1802, Lanna characters were popular as
ancient characters. The segmentation of printed documents in Lanna characters
is a challenging problem, such as the partial overlapping of characters and
touching characters. This paper focuses on only the touching characters such as
touching between consonants and vowels. Segmentation method begins with the
horizontal histogram and then vertical histogram for segmentation of text lines
and characters, respectively. The results are characters consisted of correct clear
characters, partial overlapping characters, and touching characters. The proposed
method computes the left edge junction points and right edge junction points.
Then find their maximum numbers and find the value of its row to separate
consonant and vowel from touching. The trial over the text documents printed in
Lanna characters can be processed with an accuracy of 95.81%.
