1. A method of character segmentation for character recognition, comprising: first binarizing a gray scale image using a general threshold method to generate a first image; second binarizing the gray scale image using an edge detection method to generate a second image; determining a character row region of the second image by using horizontal projection analysis; generating an isolated character row image of the first image using the character row region of the second image; and generating individual character images from the isolated character row image.
