In this paper we present an algorithm for thresholding images of historical documents. The main objective is to generate high quality monochromatic images in order to make them eas...
Abstract--This paper extends the transition method for binarization based on transition pixels, a generalization of edge pixels. This method originally computes transition threshol...
It is common for libraries to provide public access to historical and ancient document image collections. It is common for such document images to require specialized processing i...
This paper presents a new document image binarization technique that segments the text from badly degraded historical document images. The proposed technique makes use of the imag...
—A vast number of historical and badly degraded document images can be found in libraries, public, and national archives. Due to the complex nature of different artifacts, such p...
