—A shape descriptor combining the histogram of the Radon transform, the logarithmic-scale histogram, and the phase-only correlation function is proposed. Applying a logarithmic-s...
More and more fonts have sprung up in recent years in digital publishing industry and reading devices. In this paper, we focus on methods of evaluating digital Chinese fonts and t...
Abstract—In this paper, we present a novel languageindependent algorithm for extracting text-lines from handwritten document images. Our algorithm is based on the seam carving ap...
—In this paper, we propose a new method for three dimensional rotation-free recognition of characters in scene. In the proposed method, we employ the Modified Quadratic Discrimi...
—We propose a novel scenario called “writer retrieval” consisting in the retrieval from a set of documents all those produced by the same writer. The retrieval is based on a ...
— This paper presents a new method based on Fourier and moments features to extract words and characters from a video text line in any direction for recognition. Unlike existing ...
—This paper presents a new method for localization of digit strings with a specific syntax in Farsi/ Arabic document images. First, some features are extracted from all connected...
—We propose a novel method to evaluate table segmentation results based on a table image ground truther. In the ground-truthing process, we first extract connected components fr...
—Reading text from photographs is a challenging problem that has received a signicant amount of attention. Two key components of most systems are (i) text detection from images a...
