As the most pervasive method of individual identification and document authentication, signatures present convincing evidence and provide an important form of indexing for effectiv...
Decoding noisy document images is commonly needed in applications such as enterprise content management. Available OCR solutions are still not satisfactory especially on noisy ima...
We describe a new approach for evaluating page segmentation algorithms. Unlike techniques that rely on OCR output, our method is region-based: the segmentation output, described a...
Rotation of the binary image of a document page for correcting the skew in the case of OCR or signature verification systems entails disfigurement of the shape of the characters, ...
