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...
Segmentation of Nom characters from body text regions of stele images is a challenging problem due to the confusing spatial distribution of the connected components composing these...
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...
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...

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...
