Two Approaches for Text Segmentation in Web Images
There is a significant need to recognise the text in images on web pages, both for effective indexing and for presentation by non-visual means (e.g., audio). This paper presents a...

A New Text Detection Algorithm for Content-Oriented Line Drawing Image Retrieval
Abstract. Content retrieval of scanned line drawing images is a difficult problem, especially from real-life large scale databases. Existing algorithms don’t work well due to th...

A discriminative semi-Markov model for robust scene text recognition
We present a semi-Markov model for recognizing scene text that integrates character and word segmentation with recognition. Using wavelet features, it requires only approximate lo...

Handwritten Text Line Segmentation by Shredding Text into its Lines
In this paper, we propose a novel technique to segment handwritten document images into text lines by shredding their surface with local minima tracers. Our approach is based on t...
