  Document Layout Analysis is a fundamental step in Handwritten Text Processing
systems, from the extraction of the text lines to the type of zone it belongs
to. We present a system based on artificial neural networks which is able to
determine not only the baselines of text lines present in the document, but
also performs geometric and logic layout analysis of the document. Experiments
in three different datasets demonstrate the potential of the method and show
competitive results with respect to state-of-the-art methods.
