This paper presents a new perception based model for reading cursive script. We describe the organization of our pseudo-neuronal system and show the role of activation mechanism in perceiving and reading cursive script. We have introduced into our model some characteristics specific to cursive script. First, we use more appropriate features such as ascenders and descenders. Second, we deal with the ambiguity of letter location by introducing the concept of the fuzzy position. The location as well as the missing letters are deduced from the context (i.e. the word-letter lexicon). After implementation of our method, preliminary qualitative results have been obtained and are discussed. We are concentrating now on further formalizing and generalizing the proposed model on a larger data base.
