Text line segmentation in handwritten documents is an important step in document processing. We present a new text line segmentation method based on the Mumford-Shah model. The algorithm is script independent. In addition, we use morphing to remove overlaps between neighboring text lines and connect broken ones. Experimental results show the validity of our method.

Consideration is given to a family of minimal surfaces bounded by the broken lines in R3 which are locally injectively projected onto the coordinate plane. The considered family is bijectively mapped by means of the Enepper–Weierstrass representation onto a set of circular polygons of a certain type. The parametrization of this set is constructed, and the dimension of the parameter domain is es...

wheat is one of the most important food staff in consumption pattern of each country. more than 50 percent of energy is provided by bread in the developing countries. the aim of this study was measuring wheat losses during pre-harvest and harvest stages in chaharmahal and bakhtiari province of iran in year 2013. wheat losses at harvest stages were measured to wheat varieties in 2 levels of omid...

Introduction: Micrometeorites (MMs) are large (>25 µm) interplanetary dust particles that survive atmospheric entry to be recovered from the Earth's surface. Amongst those particles that escaped significant heating during atmospheric entry two groups have been identified [1]: (i) fine-grained MMs (fgMMs), which are similar to the fine-grained matrices of hy-drated carbonaceous chondrites (CCs),...

Abstract The broken strand fault of overhead transmission lines will cause a local temperature rise. extreme value point decay to the normal area, affecting operation adjacent lines. In order study relationship between distance, number strands, and load current under natural convection, type LGJ-240/30 line is selected as test object. Destructive thermal cycling tests are performed in laborator...

different methods for detecting broken bars in induction motors can be found in literature. many of these methods are based on evaluating special frequency magnitudes in machine signals spectrums. current, power, flux, etc are among these signals. frequencies related to broken rotor fault depend on slip. in industrial environment due to some phenomena - such as load oscillation, other faults an...
