Abstract
This paper briefly describes an experimental arc extraction algorithm that ran the Arc Segmentation Contest at GREC’2001. As the proposed method is based on the one detailed in [5], this paper only describes the improvments we brought to the original method. We first review some rules from the evaluation protocol that helped us to make major assumptions while designing the algorithm. We then explain the method, and discuss the results we obtained in various cases. Finally, we give some conclusions and introduce a possible extension to this method.
