چکیده

Patent images maintained by the U.S. patent database have figures and related description separated in different pages. This makes it difficult for users to refer to a figure while reading the description. In order to prepare these patent images for a friendly user interface, this paper presents a system, which is able to segment a mulitple-figure image page into individual figures and extract text information like captions and labels from the figure. After obtaining captions and labels, figures and the related description could be linked together, and thus users could easily refer from a description to the figure or vice versa.
