Document Image Coding for Processing and Retrieval

Journal of VLSI signal processing systems for signal, image and video technology, 1998
Document images belong to a unique class of images where the information is embedded in the language represented by a series of symbols on the page rather than in the visual objects themselves. Since these symbols tend to appear repeatedly, a domain-specific image coding strategy can be designed to facilitate enhanced compression and retrieval. In this

Symbolic Compression and Processing of Document Images

Computer Vision and Image Understanding, 1998
In this paper, we describe a compression and representation scheme which exploits the component-level redundancy found within a document image. The approach identifies patterns which appear repeatedly, represents similar patterns with a single prototype, stores the location of pattern instances, and codes the residuals between the prototypes and the ...

Document Image Processing The New Image Processing Frontier

SPIE Proceedings, 1990
The nineteen nineties will usher in a new era in image processing systems. The maturation of the technologies required to capture, store, process, retrieve, display and distribute documents electronically will enable government and industry to implement large scale, highly productive and cost effective, document image processing (DIP) systems. This new

Image processing of forensic documents

Proceedings of 3rd International Conference on Document Analysis and Recognition, 2002
Since the middle of the seventies, a number of research projects have been developing computer assisted methods for work in forensic document examination. Special programs have been developed and commercial software has been adapted to the practical requirements of this work as well. The paper discusses a number of European image processing systems and

Document analysis by processing JBIG-encoded images

International Journal of Document Analysis and Recognition (IJDAR), 2005
Techniques are presented to directly process JBIG-encoded document images. Two experimental processing pipelines are designed to evaluate the performance of the methods from the application perspective. They are document segmentation for obtaining the global layout and the form processing system for form type identification and the form dropout.

Processing document images on the telco network

IEEE Communications Magazine, 1993
Documentation image processing, an important information service made possible by greater network bandwidth and optical storage capacities in public communications networks, is discussed. Document image technology converts physical records and documents into digitized images for task processing and archival storage on magnetic or optical media. Imaging

AN INTEGRATED SYSTEM FOR HANDWRITTEN DOCUMENT IMAGE PROCESSING

International Journal of Pattern Recognition and Artificial Intelligence, 2003
In this paper we attempt to face common problems of handwritten documents such as nonparallel text lines in a page, hill and dale writing, slanted and connected characters. Towards this end an integrated system for document image preprocessing is presented.

Processing JPEG-compressed images and documents

IEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 1998
As the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) has become an international standard for image compression, we present techniques that allow the processing of an image in the "JPEG-compressed" domain. The goal is to reduce memory requirements while increasing speed by avoiding decompression and space domain operations. In each case, an effort is made to

Processing of binary images of handwritten text documents

Pattern Recognition, 1996
This paper deals with three different problems in the processing of binary images of handwritten text documents. Firstly, an integrated algorithm that finds a straight line approximation of a textual stroke is described. It has the advantage of using the distance transform of thinned binary images to identify spurious bifurcation points, which are ...
