چکیده

The aim of layout analysis is to extract the geometric structure from a document image. It consists of labeling homogenous regions of a document image. This paper describes the performance of segmentation algorithms and their adaptation in order to treat complex structured Arabic documents such as newspapers. Experimental tests have been carried out on four different phases of newspaper image analysis: thread recognition, frame recognition, image text separation, text line recognition, and line merging into blocks. Some promising experimental results are reported.
