This paper presents an algorithm using adaptive local connectivity map for retrieving text lines from the complex handwritten documents such as handwritten historical manuscripts....
Ink-bleed interference is a serious problem that affects the legibility of old documents. Ink-bleed can be reduced reasonably well using pixel classification based on user supplie...
This paper covers a method for capturing documents using a digital camera. A typical cheap VGA digital camera (resolution 640 by 480 pixels) does not have adequate resolution to c...
In our previous work [1], we proposed a construction of critically sampled perfect reconstruction transforms with directional vanishing moments (DVMs) imposed in the corresponding...
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...
