Natural Language Inspired Approach for Handwritten Text Line Detection in Legacy Documents
Document layout analysis is an important task needed for handwritten text recognition among other applications. Text layout commonly found in handwritten legacy documents is in the form of one or more paragraphs composed of parallel text lines. An approach for handwritten text line detection is presented which uses machinelearning techniques and methods widely used in natural language processin...
متن کاملA New Algorithm for Detecting Text Line in Handwritten Documents
Curvilinear text line detection and segmentation in handwritten documents is a significant challenge for handwriting recognition. Given no prior knowledge of script, we model text line detection as an image segmentation problem by enhancing text line structure using a Gaussian window, and adopting the level set method to evolve text line boundaries. Experiments show that the proposed method ach...
متن کاملSegmentation of Handwritten Gurmukhi Text into Lines
Text line segmentation is an essential pre-processing stage for handwriting recognition in many Optical Character Recognition (OCR) systems. It is an important step because inaccurately segmented text lines will cause errors in the recognition stage. Text line segmentation of the handwritten documents is still one of the most complicated problems in developing a reliable OCR. The nature of hand...
متن کاملThe GIDOC Prototype
Transcription of handwritten text in (old) documents is an important, time-consuming task for digital libraries. In this paper, an efficient interactivepredictive transcription prototype called GIDOC (Gimp-based Interactive transcription of old text DOCuments) is presented. GIDOC is a first attempt to provide integrated support for interactive-predictive page layout analysis, text line detectio...
متن کاملText line and word segmentation of handwritten documents
In this paper, we present a segmentation methodology of handwritten documents in their distinct entities, namely, text lines and words. Text line segmentation is achieved by applying Hough transform on a subset of the document image connected components. A post-processing step includes the correction of possible false alarms, the detection of text lines that Hough transform failed to create and...
متن کاملA new scheme for unconstrained handwritten text-line segmentation
Variations in inter-line gaps and skewed or curled text-lines are some of the challenging issues in segmentation of handwritten text-lines. Moreover, overlapping and touching text-lines that frequently appear in unconstrained handwritten text documents significantly increase segmentation complexities. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for unconstrained handwritten text-line segmentatio...
