Unfortunately, their code is exceptionally hard to get right, since it must correctly recover from any crash at any program point, no matter how their state was sme...

Document page decomposition by the bounding-box project

This paper describes a method for extracting words, textlines and text blocks by analyzing the spatial configuration of bounding boxes of connected components on a given document image. The basic idea is that connected components of black pixels can be used as computational units in document image analysis. In this paper, the problem of extracting words, textlines and text blocks is viewed as a...
