In this work we propose a new page segmentation method for recognizing text and graphics based on a multiresolution representation of the page image. Our approach is based on the analysis of a set of feature maps available at different resolution levels. The final output is a description of the physical structure of a page. A page image is broken down into several blocks which represent components of a page, such as text, line-drawings, and pictures. The result, which uses only a small amount of memory in addition to that for the image, may be the first step for a more detailed analysis such as optical character recognition.

Abstract
In this work we propose a new page segmentation method for recognizing text and graphics based on a multiresolution representation of the page image. Our approach is based on the analysis of a set of feature maps available at different resolution levels. The final output is a description of the physical structure of a page. A page image is broken down into several blocks which represent components of a page, such as text, line-drawings, and pictures. The result, which uses only a small amount of memory in addition to that for the image, may be the first step for a more detailed analysis such as optical character recognition.File in questo prodotto:
