Straightening warped text lines using polynomial regression

Straightening warped text lines using polynomial regression
Perspective distortion always occurs while scanning thick, bound documents, resulting in two problems in the scanned grayscale image ? (i) shade along the `spine' of the book, and (ii) warping of words in the shade area. We proposed a restoration system to solve these two problems in our previous paper [1]. However the shape of the warped words was not fully restored, since we simply shifted and rotated the warped word. In this paper, we will propose a better method to straighten warped text line using polynomial regression. The implementation results comparing with those of the old system have shown a marked improvement in the image restoration.
