Binarizing Document Images Using Coplanar Prefilter
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a novel coplanar filter, which exploits the coplanarity of gray-level distribution of neighboring pixels, to pre-filter the document images. Experiments show that the proposed filter exhibits the following desired properties for document image binarization: (1) impulsive noise removal, (2) piecewise smoothing, and (3) sharp edge preservation.

متن کاملContrast adaptive binarization of low quality document images
We propose in this paper an improved method for binarizing document images by adaptively exploiting the local image contrast. The proposed method aims to overcome the common problems encountered in low quality images, such as uneven illumination, low contrast, and random noise. Experiments have been conducted and the results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
متن کاملA Framework for the Selection of Binarization Techniques on Palm Leaf Manuscripts Using Support Vector Machine
Challenges for text processing in ancient document images are mainly due to the high degree of variations in foreground and background. Image binarization is an image segmentation technique used to separate the image into text and background components. Although several techniques for binarizing text documents have been proposed, the performance of these techniques varies and depends on the ima...
متن کاملBinarizing Business Card Images for Mobile Devices
Business card images are of multiple natures as these often contain graphics, pictures and texts of various fonts and sizes both in background and foreground. So, the conventional binarization techniques designed for document images can not be directly applied on mobile devices. In this paper, we have presented a fast binarization technique for camera captured business card images. A card image...
متن کاملAdaptive Binarization of Unconstrained Hand-Held Camera-Captured Document Images
This paper presents a new adaptive binarization technique for degraded hand-held camera-captured document images. The state-of-the-art locally adaptive binarization methods are sensitive to the values of free parameter. This problem is more critical when binarizing degraded camera-captured document images because of distortions like non-uniform illumination, bad shading, blurring, smearing and ...
