Scientific articles published prior to the "age of digitization" (~1997) require Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to transform scanned documents into machine-readable text, a process that often produces errors. We develop a pipeline for…
Document layout analysis aims to detect and categorize structural elements (e.g., titles, tables, figures) in scanned or digital documents. Popular methods often rely on high-quality Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to merge visual…
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a micrometer-scale, volumetric imaging modality that has become a clinical standard in ophthalmology. OCT instruments image by raster-scanning a focused light spot across the retina, acquiring…
Fisheye image rectification aims to correct distortions in images taken with fisheye cameras. Although current models show promising results on images with a similar degree of distortion as the training data, they will produce sub-optimal…
