Interactive evolutionary computing for the binarization of degenerated handwritten images
نویسندگان
چکیده
The digital cleaning of dirty and old documents and the binarization into a black/white image can be a tedious process. It is usually done by experts. In this article a method is shown that is easy for the end user. Untrained persons are able to do this task now while before an expert was needed. The method uses interactive evolutionary computing to program image processing operations that act on the document image.

متن کاملAncient Document Images Enhancement Using Phase Based Binarization
In this paper, we present a phase-based binarization model for degraded document images, also a post processing method that can improve any binarization method and a ground truth generation tool. Usually, many binarization techniques are implemented in the literature for different types of binarization problems. It include an adaptive image contrast based document image binarization technique t...
متن کاملAn Analysis of Image Denoising and Restoration of Handwritten Degraded Document Images
The restoration of a blurry or noisy image is commonly performed with a MAP estimator, which maximizes a posterior probability to reconstruct a clean image from a degraded image. A MAP estimator, when used with a sparse gradient image prior, reconstructs piecewise smooth images and typically removes textures that are important for visual realism. The three public datasets that were used in the ...
متن کاملBinarization Driven Blind Deconvolution for Document Image Restoration
Blind deconvolution is a common method for restoration of blurred text images, while binarization is employed to analyze and interpret the text semantics. In literature, these tasks are typically treated independently. This paper introduces a novel binarization driven blind deconvolution approach to couple both tasks in a common framework. The proposed method is derived as an energy minimizatio...
