In this paper, we discuss a new representation scheme for word images which exploits the structural features. The word image features are represented in the form of a graph called as the Geometric Feature Graph (GFG). The GFG is encoded in the form of a string which serves as a compressed representation of the word image skeleton. We demonstrate reconstruction, and retrieval of word images for 3 different scripts using the GFG string.
