Due to noise, overlapped text/signature and multi-oriented nature, seal (stamp) object detection involves a difficult challenge. This paper deals with automatic detection of seal ...
We introduce a novel skeleton extraction algorithm in binary and gray-scale images, based on the anisotropic heat diffusion analogy. We propose to diffuse image in the dominance o...
Scanning two book pages at the same time helps to accelerate the scanning process but on the other hand introduces several difficulties if the user needs to have one page per imag...
Binary segmentation, a problem of extracting foreground objects from the background, often arises in medical imaging and document processing. Popular existing solutions include Ex...
In this paper, we present a binarization technique specifically designed for historical document images. Existing methods for this problem focus on either finding a good global th...
