Text/Non-Text Separation from Handwritten Document Images Using LBP Based Features: An Empirical Study

Texture Classification Based On Empirical Wavelet Transform Using LBP Features

Automatic inspection systems become more importance for industries with high productive plans especially in texture industry. A novel approach to Local Binary Pattern (LBP) feature for texture classification is proposed in this system. At the first, the proposed Empirical Wavelet Transform (EWT) based texture classification is tested on gray scale and color images by using Brodatz texture image...

Handwritten and Printed Text Separation in Real Document

The aim of the paper is to separate handwritten and printed text from a real document embedded with noise, graphics including annotations. Relying on run-length smoothing algorithm (RLSA), the extracted pseudolines and pseudo-words are used as basic blocks for classification. To handle this, a multi-class support vector machine (SVM) with Gaussian kernel performs a first labelling of each pseud...

Writer Identification based on offline Handwritten Document Images in Kannada language using Empirical Mode Decomposition method

New challenges in computer applications such as web searching, multimedia data retrieval, data mining, face recognition and handwriting recognition has attracted many researchers. Handwriting identification is one of the important research topics in the area of Pattern recognition and image processing. Many methods have been reported for identification of writer

Segmentation of Handwritten Document Images into Text Lines

There are many governmental, cultural, commercial and educational organizations that manage large number of manuscript textual information. Since the management of information recorded on paper or scanned documents is a hard and time-consuming task, Document Image Analysis (DIA) aims to extract the intended information as a human would (Nagy, 2000). The main subtasks of DIA (Mao et al. 2003) ar...
