We address the problem of content-based image retrieval in the context of complex document images. Complex document are documents that typically start out on paper and are then electronically scanned. These documents have rich internal structure and might only be available in image form. Additionally, they may have been produced by a combination of printing technologies (or by handwriting); and...

Documents Image Binarization is performed in the preprocessing stage for document analysis and it aims to segment the foreground text from the document background. A fast and accurate document image binarization technique is important for the ensuing document image processing tasks such as optical character recognition (OCR). Though document image binarization has been studied for many years, t...

sensors onboard meteorological satellites such as modis and avhrr are able to collect information adequate in frequency but with low spatial resolution. the problem can be overcome, if one finds a way to increase the quality of the vegetation indices through searching in each individual pixel of the images, employing concurrent higher spatial resolution images. the objective of this study was t...

hyperion hyperspectral data contains a very rich source of information from the earth surface that collects 242 narrow contiguous spectral bands. achieving this source of rich information is subject to the performance of suitable image processing methods on raw satellite data. satellite image processing methods can be classified into two categories of statistical-based and spectral-based. in th...
