This article describes a sketch-based framework for semi-automatic annotation of historical document collections. It is motivated by the fact that fully automatic methods, while h...
There are many problems to realize camera-based character recognition. One of the problems is that characters in scenes are often distorted by geometric transformations such as af...
Physical and logical structure recovering from electronic documents is still an open issue. In this paper, we propose a flexible and efficient approach for recovering document str...
A robust segmentation is the most important part of an automatic character recognition system (e.g. document processing, license plate recognition etc.). In our contribution we pr...

In this paper we present a writer-dependent handwriting recognition system based on hidden Markov models (HMMs). This system, which has been developed in the context of research o...
This paper presents an end-to-end administrative document analysis system. This system uses case-based reasoning in order to process documents from known and unknown classes. For ...
In this paper, we present a robust system to accurately detect and localize texts in natural scene images. For text detection, a region-based method utilizing multiple features an...
