  Stroke fragmentation is one of the key steps in pen-based interaction. In
this letter, we present a unified HMM-based stroke fragmentation technique that
can do segment point location and primitive type determination simultaneously.
The geometry features included are used to evaluate local features, and the HMM
model is utilized to measure the global drawing context. Experiments prove that
the model can efficiently represent smooth curves as well as strokes made up of
arbitrary lines and circular arcs.
