Efficient implementation of local adaptive thresholding techniques using integral images
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...

An objective way to evaluate and compare binarization algorithms
The choice of the best binarization algorithm is very critical for any document image processing system, since it is one of the first tasks and any mistake it performs will be car...

Transition Thresholds for Binarization of Historical Documents
Abstract--This paper extends the transition method for binarization based on transition pixels, a generalization of edge pixels. This method originally computes transition threshol...
