Abstract(in English) The authors have been researching on the segmentation method of touching pair of numerals using the technique of the graph theory: A touching pattern is represented as a connected graph and its segmentation is regarded as the graph partitioning into subgraphs. In this report, we extend the method to the segmentation of touching numeral strings of which number of touching characters are not pre-defined. The candidate character lattice is composed of subgraph, instead of being composed of partial-patterns. It often causes that the connected characters by overlapping-strokes or a ligature in the numeral strings. Therefore, we try to introduce the representations of "separation" and "removal" of strokes into the candidate character lattice and propose solutions for these problems.
