Segmentation of connected handwritten digits using Self-Organizing Maps

作者：

Highlights：

• We present a new method for the segmentation of connected handwritten digits.

• It is based on feature points extraction and selection by Self-Organizing Maps.

• The proposed algorithm may map each touching region between the digits.

• The proposed method overperformed other state-of-the-art algorithms.
