A general method for text localization and recognition in real-world images is presented. The proposed method is novel, as it (i) departs from a strict feed-forward pipeline and replaces it by a hypothesesverification framework simultaneously processing multiple text line hypotheses, (ii) uses synthetic fonts to train the algorithm eliminating the need for time-consuming acquisition and labelin...

A way to discourage illicit reproduction of copyrighted or sensitive documents is to watermark each copy before distribution. A unique mark is embedded in the text whose recipient is registered. The mark can be extracted from a possibly noisy illicit copy, identifying the registered recipient. Most image marking techniques are vulnerable to binarization attack and hence not suitable for text ma...

This paper presents a method for the extraction of high level compound forest cover information from manually produced scanned historical topographic maps. The contained forest cover is a unique data source for GIS-based land cover change modelling. As a case study, this work focuses on the so-called Siegfried Map, the Swiss national topographic map series of the 19 century. The map is of low g...

In this paper we have implemented an improved superimposed artificial text detection and inpainting method. Two stage frame works to remove unwanted text from images: Detection of text from image and removal of text using method of inpainting. Smoothing is used to bring more efficiency and reduction of noise and unwanted connected components at the first. With the use of feature extraction, str...

Image recognition is one of the most important field in image processing that in recent decades had much attention .Due to expansion of related fields with image processing and various application of this science in machine vision, military science, geography, aerospace and artificial intelligence and lots of other aspects, out stand the importance of this subject.One of the most important aspe...

This paper includes the information about the technique used to detect Skew which are introduced during the scanning of the documents. It also discusses about the tool which have been used to implement the technique. The algorithm has been implemented on various scripts. The method provides a very efficient way to calculate the Skew. Correction in the skewed scanned document image is very impor...
