چکیده
In this paper we tackle the specific problem of handwritten underline removal. The presence of these underlines is very frequent even in rare books and its removal a desired goal of the National Libraries in their process of building digital libraries. Two different techniques are applied and compared. One is based on mathematical morphology and the other on a recent published technique for line detection. Both were applied to books of XVI Century and the results evaluated.

متن کاملPaper-less editing and proofreading of electronic documents
This paper describes a system for editing and proofreading electronic documents with a pen-interface: with the help of a mouse or, better, an electronic stylus on a display tablet, an author may indicate how he wants to edit his text (e. g. cross-line words to delete them, underline to compose in italics, etc.). There is no learning step: however there is a dictionary of simple and natural draw...

متن کاملDealing with multiple documents on the WWW: The role of metacognition in the formation of documents models
Drawing on the theory of documents representation (Perfetti, Rouet, & Britt, 1999), we argue that successfully dealing with multiple documents on the WWW requires readers to form documents models, that is, to deal with contents and sources. We present a study in which we tested the assumption that the use of metacognitive strategies is crucial to the formation of documents models. A total of 10...
متن کاملNew Preprocessing Techniques for Handwritten Word Recognition
The research described in this paper focuses on the presentation of two novel preprocessing techniques for the task of off-line handwritten word recognition. A technique for the identification of straight and skewed underline noise is described along with a novel algorithm for detecting skew in handwritten words. The latter identifies skew by detecting the center of mass in each half of a word ...
