We present a method to recover the dynamic writing order from static images of handwriting. The static handwriting is initially represented by its skeleton, which is then converted into a graph, whose arcs correspond to the skeleton branches, and nodes to either end point or branch point of the skeleton. Criteria derived by handwriting generation are then applied to transform the graph in such a way that all its nodes, but the first and the last, have an even degree, so that it can be traversed from the first to the last by using the Fleury's algorithm. The experimental results show that combining criteria derived from handwriting generation models with graph traversal leads to reconstruct the original sequence produced by a writer even in case of complex handwriting, i.e handwriting with retracing, crossings and pen-up's. |
