A method of recognizing a handwritten word of cursive script comprising providing a template of previously classified words, and optically reading a handwritten word so as to form an image representation thereof comprising a bit map of pixels. The external pixel contour of the bit map is extracted and the vertical peak and minima pixel extrema on upper and lower zones respectively of this external contour are detected. Feature vectors of the vertical peak and minima pixel extrema are determined and compared to the template so as to generate a match between the handwritten word and a previously classified word. A method for classifying an image representation of a handwritten word of cursive script is also provided. Also provided is an apparatus for recognizing a handwritten word of cursive script. This apparatus comprises a template of previously classified words, a reader for optically reading a handwritten word, and a controller being linked thereto for generating a match between the handwritten word and the previously classified words. Two algorithms are provided for respectively correcting the skew and slant of a word image.
