Most of the document binarization techniques have many parameters that can initially be specified. Usually, subjective document binarization evaluation, employs human observes for ...
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...
This paper presents a new adaptive approach for document image binarization. The proposed method is mainly based on the combination of several stateof-the-art binarization methodo...

Gray-scale document images are binarized in order to perform optical character recognition (OCR). To perform this binarization, a variety of techniques have been proposed for perf...
Abstract—This paper presents an adaptive algorithm for preprocessing document images prior to binarization in character recognition problems. Our method is similar in its approac...
