Segmentation of complex document

چکیده
In this paper we present a method for segmentation of documents image with complex structure. This technique based on GLCM (Grey Level Co-occurrence Matrix) used to segment this type of document in three regions namely, 'graphics', 'background' and 'text'. Very briefly, this method is to divide the document image, in block size chosen after a series of tests and then applying the co-occurrence matrix to each block in order to extract five textural parameters which are energy, entropy, the sum entropy, difference entropy and standard deviation. These parameters are then used to classify the image into three regions using the k-means algorithm; the last step of segmentation is obtained by grouping connected pixels. Two performance measurements are performed for both graphics and text zones; we have obtained a classification rate of 98.3% and a Misclassification rate of 1.79%. Keywords—k-means algorithm, image document, co-occurrence matrix, segmentation, texture.

متن کاملDirectional Stroke Width Transform to Separate Text and Graphics in City Maps
One of the complex documents in the real world is city maps. In these kinds of maps, text labels overlap by graphics with having a variety of fonts and styles in different orientations. Usually, text and graphic colour is not predefined due to various map publishers. In most city maps, text and graphic lines form a single connected component. Moreover, the common regions of text and graphic lin...

متن کاملLearning Segmentation of Documents with Complex Scripts
Most of the state-of-the-art segmentation algorithms are designed to handle complex document layouts and backgrounds, while assuming a simple script structure such as in Roman script. They perform poorly when used with Indian languages, where the components are not strictly collinear. In this paper, we propose a document segmentation algorithm that can handle the complexity of Indian scripts in...
متن کاملMulti-layer segmentation of complex document images
Text is commonly printed on a complex background. Segmenting text is an important part in document analysis. In the past some methods have been shown for the segmentation of texts with images. However, previous studies have not sufficiently addressed complex compound documents. This investigation presents an algorithm for the segmentation of text in various document images. The proposed segment...
