Linecounter: Learning Handwritten Text Line Segmentation By Counting [PDF]
Handwritten Text Line Segmentation (HTLS) is a low-level but important task for many higher-level document processing tasks like handwritten text recognition. It is often formulated in terms of semantic segmentation or object detection in deep learning. However, both formulations have serious shortcomings.

Handwriting-Based Text Line Segmentation from Malayalam Documents
Optical character recognition systems for Malayalam handwritten documents have become an open research area. A major hindrance in this research is the unavailability of a benchmark database. Therefore, a new database of 402 Malayalam handwritten document

Text line segmentation of historical documents: a survey [PDF]
There is a huge amount of historical documents in libraries and in various National Archives that have not been exploited electronically. Although automatic reading of complete pages remains, in most cases, a long-term objective, tasks such as word spotting, text/image alignment, authentication and extraction of specific fields are in use today.

TranSentCut - transformer based Thai sentence segmentation [PDF]
We propose TranSentCut, a sentence segmentation model for Thai based on the transformer architecture. Sentence segmentation for Thai is a problem because there is no end of sentence marker like in other languages. Existing methods make use of POS tags,
