I am using a handwriting database for writer recognition. I'm using the QUWI database, it has a sample of an original image and a sample of the image segmented into lines by giving each line a different colour.
For example here is the original image: (couldn't upload it here as it was over 5 MB)
And here is the image where the lines are detected and separated via colour:
Is there anyway I can use the method they used to extract the lines from the original image based on colour. Such as using the colours of this image as a mask?
