Skew Detection in Image Processing

Many researchers proposed different methodologies for the text skew estimation in binary images/gray scale images. They have been used widely for the skew identification of the printed text. There exist so many ways algorithms for detecting and correcting a slant or skew in a given document or image. Some of them provide better accuracy but are slow in speed, others have angle limitation drawback. So a new technique for skew detection in the paper, will reduce the time and cost.
