Abstract EN
This paper describes a new segmentation algorithm for handwritten Arabic characters using Rotational Invariant Segments Features (RISF).
The algorithm evaluates a large set of curved segments or strokes through the image of the input Arabic word or sub word using a dynamic feature extraction technique then nominates a small “optimal” subset of cuts for segmentation.
All the directions of stroke are converted to two main segments : '+' and w '-' RISF.
A list of nominated segmentation points are prepared from the '+' segments and evaluated according to special conditions to locate the final segmentation points.
The RISF algorithm was tested by using our new designed database AHD / AUST and the IFN / ENIT database.
It has achieved a high segmentation rate of 95.66% on AHD / AUST and 90.58% on IFN / ENIT handwritten Arabic databases.
