This paper analyzes the problems of document image recognition and the existing solutions.
Document recognition algorithms have been studied for quite a long time, but despite this …

Documents scanning is still one of the widely used documents digitization steps; however,
skew in scanned documents is inevitable. If this skew is not corrected, the extraction of …

Automatic optical recognition of documents is a traditional function of modern document
processing systems. In this context, recognition represents a complex process which …

The paper presents an algorithm for road markings detection in the image. The road
markings are approximated by polyline with a restricted maximum curvature angle. To detect …

The Hough transform, interpreted as the discretization of the Radon transform, is a widely
used tool in image processing and machine vision. The primary way to speed it up is to …

The writer identification (WI) of handwritten Arabic text is now of great concern to intelligence
agencies following the recent attacks perpetrated by known Middle East terrorist …

In the digital world, a wide range of handwritten and printed documents should be converted
to digital format using a variety of tools, including mobile phones and scanners …

The work briefly describes the activities of the Moscow Scientific School of Digital Image
Processing, formed on the basis of a team led by Professor VL Arlazarov. This school is …

During the optical scanning of a document using any of the Optical Character Recognition
(OCR) devices, it is difficult to ensure that the scanned document will not get skewed. The …

Skew estimation is one of the vital tasks in document processing systems, especially for
scanned document images, because its performance impacts subsequent steps directly …
