In this paper we propose a character segmentation method for multispectral images of ancient documents. Due to the low quality of the images the main idea of this study is to comb...
The system presented in this paper finds images and line-drawings in scanned pages; it is a crucial processing step in the creation of a large-scale system to detect and index ima...
Document image segmentation algorithms primarily aim at separating text and graphics in presence of complex layouts. However, for many non-Latin scripts, segmentation becomes a ch...
We address document image classification by visual appearance. An image is represented by a variable-length list of visually salient features. A hierarchical Bayesian network is ...
Cheap and versatile cameras make it possible to easily and quickly capture a wide variety of documents. However, low resolution cameras present a challenge to OCR because it is vi...
