Abstract

Estimation of aiding typographical rulers is a challenging task especially for everyday handwriting. The method described here performs very well as long as the model assumption of one straight line is satisfied. It is completely based on contour processing. A sophisticated iterated regression analysis processing weighted points is the central algorithm. The method can be used for handwriting as well as machine printed texts without adjusting the parameters.
