A Local-to-Global Approach to Complex Document Layout Analysis
نویسنده
چکیده
Document layout analysis is concerned about the decomposition of raster representation of a document into several regions which contain homogeneous entities. This paper describes a new approach to segment documents with complex layout and degraded image quality. The approach uses a local-to-global strategy which can be adapted to a variety of documents. The system was tested on different English and Japanese documents and the experiments had shown promising results.

A Multi-functional Approach for Document Layout Analysis
The important pre-requisites in document layout analysis are identifying number of text lines, number of columns and segmentation of textual and non-textual regions. The literature reveals two major procedures viz. global and local approaches used for extraction of text lines. The examples of global approaches are projection profile and Hough transform, which have serious problem with multicolu...
متن کاملAdaptive Layout Analysis of Document Images
Layout analysis is the process of extracting a hierarchical structure describing the layout of a page. In the document processing system WISDOM++ the layout analysis is performed in two steps: firstly, the global analysis determines possible areas containing paragraphs, sections, columns, figures and tables, and secondly, the local analysis groups together blocks that possibly fall within the s...
متن کاملLink Prediction using Network Embedding based on Global Similarity
Background: The link prediction issue is one of the most widely used problems in complex network analysis. Link prediction requires knowing the background of previous link connections and combining them with available information. The link prediction local approaches with node structure objectives are fast in case of speed but are not accurate enough. On the other hand, the global link predicti...
متن کاملDirectional Stroke Width Transform to Separate Text and Graphics in City Maps
One of the complex documents in the real world is city maps. In these kinds of maps, text labels overlap by graphics with having a variety of fonts and styles in different orientations. Usually, text and graphic colour is not predefined due to various map publishers. In most city maps, text and graphic lines form a single connected component. Moreover, the common regions of text and graphic lin...
متن کاملCoupling Nonlinear Element Free Galerkin and Linear Galerkin Finite Volume Solver for 2D Modeling of Local Plasticity in Structural Material
This paper introduces a computational strategy to collaboratively develop the Galerkin Finite Volume Method (GFVM) as one of the most straightforward and efficient explicit numerical methods to solve structural problems encountering material nonlinearity in a small limited area, while the remainder of the domain represents a linear elastic behavior. In this regard, the Element Free Galerkin met...
