Conventional segmentation technique cannot extract difficult characters such as an isolated character and a touching character. In this paper, we propose a novel character recogn...
This paper describes the development of a new document ranking system based on layout similarity. The user has a need represented by a set of ”wanted” documents, and the syste...

This paper proposes a novel dewarping technique for document images of bound volumes. This technique is a kind of model fitting techniques for estimating the warp of each text li...
Automatic text recognition from natural images receives a growing attention because of potential applications in image retrieval, robotics and intelligent transport system. Camera...
Digital repositories raise the need for an effective and efficient retrieval of the stored material. In this paper we propose the intensive application of intelligent techniques t...
