The main problems of Optical Character Recognition (OCR) systems are solved if printed latin text is considered. Since OCR systems are based upon binary images, their results are ...
—In this paper, a new binarization algorithm for degraded document images is proposed. The method is based on positive and negative pixel energies using the Laplacian of an image...
This paper presents a new document image binarization technique that segments the text from badly degraded historical document images. The proposed technique makes use of the imag...
This paper presents a document image thresholding technique that binarizes badly illuminated document images by the photometric correction. Based on the observation that illuminat...
—In this paper, we present a novel approach for super-resolved binarization of document images acquired by low quality devices. The algorithm tries to compute the super resolutio...
