A review of evaluation of optimal binarization technique for character segmentation in historical manuscripts [PDF]
A number of binarization techniques have been proposed in the past for automatic document processing. Although some studies have aimed to evaluate the performance of binarization algorithms, there is no automatic system that is capable of selecting the ...

Multitraining support vector machine for image retrieval [PDF]
Relevance feedback (RF) schemes based on support vector machines (SVMs) have been widely used in content-based image retrieval (CBIR). However, the performance of SVM-based RF approaches is often poor when the number of labeled feedback samples is small.

Document expansion for image retrieval [PDF]
Successful information retrieval requires effective matching between the user's search request and the contents of relevant documents. Often the request entered by a user may not use the same topic relevant terms as the authors' of the documents.

A probabilistic model of Ancient Egyptian writing [PDF]
This article investigates a probabilistic model to describe how signs form words in Ancient Egyptian writing. This applies to both hieroglyphic and hieratic texts. The model uses an intermediate layer of sign functions.

Image compression with anisotropic diffusion [PDF]
Compression is an important field of digital image processing where well-engineered methods with high performance exist. Partial differential equations (PDEs), however, have not much been explored in this context so far. In our paper we introduce a novel
