Advances in domain independent linear text segmentation

نویسنده

  • Freddy Y. Y. Choi
چکیده

This paper describes a method for linear text segmentation which is twice as accurate and over seven times as fast as the state-of-the-art (Reynar, 1998). Inter-sentence similarity is replaced by rank in the local context. Boundary locations are discovered by divisive clustering.

Using Multiple Discriminant Analysis Approach for Linear Text Segmentation

Research on linear text segmentation has been an on-going focus in NLP for the last decade, and it has great potential for a wide range of applications such as document summarization, information retrieval and text understanding. However, for linear text segmentation, there are two critical problems involving automatic boundary detection and automatic determination of the number of segments in ...

Document Analysis And Classification Based On Passing Window

In this paper we present Document analysis and classification system to segment and classify contents of Arabic document images. This system includes preprocessing, document segmentation, feature extraction and document classification. A document image is enhanced in the preprocessing by removing noise, binarization, and detecting and correcting image skew. In document segmentation, an algorith...

A Statistical Model for Domain-Independent Text Segmentation

We propose a statistical method that finds the maximum-probability segmentation of a given text. This method does not require training data because it estimates probabilities from the given text. Therefore, it can be applied to any text in any domain. An experiment showed that the method is more accurate than or at least as accurate as a state-of-the-art text segmentation system.

A Modified Character Segmentation Algorithm for Farsi Printed Text Using Upper Contour Labelling

In this paper, a modified segmentation algorithm for printed Farsi words is presented. This algorithm is based on a previous work by Azmi that uses the conditional labeling of the upper contour to find the segmentation points. The main objective is to improve the segmentation results for low quality prints. To achieve this, various modifications on local baseline detection, contour labeling an...

Review: A Literature Survey on Text Segmentation in Handwritten Punjabi Documents

Gurumukhi script is used for Punjabi language, which is a two dimensional composition of symbols with connected and disconnected diacritics. Handwritten Gurumukhi script has some complexities like connected, overlapped text lines, words and characters. It is one of the foremost issues for errors during the recognition process. Text segmentation is a challenging job in unconstrained writer indep...
