image.textlinedetector: Segment Images in Text Lines and Words

Find text lines in scanned images and segment the lines into words. Includes implementations of the paper 'Novel A* Path Planning Algorithm for Line Segmentation of Handwritten Documents' by Surinta O. et al (2014) <doi:10.1109/ICFHR.2014.37> available at <https://github.com/smeucci/LineSegm>, an implementation of 'A Statistical approach to line segmentation in handwritten documents' by Arivazhagan M. et al (2007) <doi:10.1117/12.704538>, and a wrapper for an image segmentation technique to detect words in text lines as described in the paper 'Scale Space Technique for Word Segmentation in Handwritten Documents' by Manmatha R. and Srimal N. (1999) paper at <doi:10.1007/3-540-48236-9_3>, wrapper for code available at <https://github.com/arthurflor23/text-segmentation>.
