The main theme of this paper is the automatic segmentation of Arabic words using Mathematical Morphology tools. The proposed algorithm has been tested with a set of Arabic words written by different writers ranging from poor to acceptable quality, The initial experimental results are very encouraging and promising.

Index Terms:

Handwritten Arabic words, Mathematical Morphology, Slant Correction, Connected Components, Segmentation, Singularities and Regularities.
