Recognition of document images have important applications in restoring old and classical texts. The problem involves quality improvement before passing it to a properly trained OCR to get accurate recognition of the text. The image…
Bangla is the seventh most spoken language by a total number of speakers in the world, and yet the development of an automated grammar checker in this language is an understudied problem. Bangla grammatical error detection is a task of…
This paper addresses the problem of document image dewarping, which aims at eliminating the geometric distortion in document images for document digitization. Instead of designing a better neural network to approximate the optical flow…
India is a multilingual multi-script country. In every state of India there are two languages one is state local language and the other is English. For example in Andhra Pradesh, a state in India, the document may contain text words in…
Incongruity between news headlines and the body content is a common method of deception used to attract readers. Profitable headlines pique readers' interest and encourage them to visit a specific website. This is usually done by adding an…
In this paper we present a fully trainable binarization solution for degraded document images. Unlike previous attempts that often used simple features with a series of pre- and post-processing, our solution encodes all heuristics about…
Braille has empowered visually challenged community to read and write. But at the same time, it has created a gap due to widespread inability of non-Braille users to understand Braille scripts. This gap has fuelled researchers to propose…
Detecting manipulations in digital documents is becoming increasingly important for information verification purposes. Due to the proliferation of image editing software, altering key information in documents has become widely accessible.…
The problem of converting images of text into plain text is a widely researched topic in both academia and industry. Arabic handwritten Text Recognation (AHTR) poses additional challenges due to diverse handwriting styles and limited…
Text line segmentation is one of the pre-stages of modern optical character recognition systems. The algorithmic approach proposed by this paper has been designed for this exact purpose. Its main characteristic is the combination of two…
Accessing daily news content still remains a big challenge for people with print-impairment including blind and low-vision due to opacity of printed content and hindrance from online sources. In this paper, we present our approach for…
Video OCR is a technique that can greatly help to locate the topics of interest in video via the automatic extraction and reading of captions and annotations. Text in video can provide key indexing information. Recognizing such text for…
Business card images are of multiple natures as these often contain graphics, pictures and texts of various fonts and sizes both in background and foreground. So, the conventional binarization techniques designed for document images can not…
Bangla Handwritten Digit recognition is a significant step forward in the development of Bangla OCR. However, intricate shape, structural likeness and distinctive composition style of Bangla digits makes it relatively challenging to…
Optical character recognition (OCR) is a widely used pattern recognition application in numerous domains. There are several feature-rich, general-purpose OCR solutions available for consumers, which can provide moderate to excellent…
Optical Character Recognition has been a challenging field in the advent of digital computers. It is needed where information is to be readable both to humans and machines. The process of OCR is composed of a set of pre and post processing…
With the rapid increase in the volume of Big data of this digital era, fax documents, invoices, receipts, etc are traditionally subjected to compression for the efficiency of data storage and transfer. However, in order to process these…
We propose a post-OCR text correction approach for digitising texts in Romanised Sanskrit. Owing to the lack of resources our approach uses OCR models trained for other languages written in Roman. Currently, there exists no dataset…
Trending topic of newspapers is an indicator to understand the situation of a country and also a way to evaluate the particular newspaper. This paper represents a model describing few techniques to select trending topics from Bangla…
Text detection and segmentation is an important prerequisite for many content based image analysis tasks. The paper proposes a novel text extraction and character segmentation algorithm using Maximally Stable Extremal Regions as basic…
