The off-line handwritten characters recorded on prescribed form documents may be overwritten by the lines of form documents. Overwitten characters should be isolated in order to be more effectively recognized. However, removal of the line causes breaks in overwritten characters. Consequently, a character restoration process is necessary. In this paper, the shape types of overwritten characters are analyzed and a method of restoring characters broken by line removal is proposed. A 97% correct restoration ratio was obtained through this method.
Index Terms:
form document, line removal, character restoration, handwritten character.
