Adaptive binarization is an important first step in many document analysis and OCR processes. This paper describes a fast adaptive binarization algorithm that yields the same qual...
—Document Image Binarization techniques have been studied for many years, and many practical binarization techniques have been developed and applied successfully on commercial do...
This paper proposes a document image binarization method, which is especially robust to the images degraded by uneven light condition, such as the camera captured document images....
We propose an algorithm for the binarization of document images degraded by uneven light distribution, based on the Markov Random Field modeling with Maximum A Posteriori probabil...
Gray-scale document images are binarized in order to perform optical character recognition (OCR). To perform this binarization, a variety of techniques have been proposed for perf...
