Document Image Segmentation

Document image segmentation is an important research area of document image analysis which classifies the contents of a document image into a set of text and non-text classes. Previous existing methods are often designed to classify text and halftone therefore they perform poorly in classifying graphics, tables and circuit, etc. In this paper, we present a robust multi-level classification method using multi-layer perceptron (MLP) and support vector machine (SVM) to segment the texts from non-texts and thereafter classify them as tables, graphics and halftones. This method outperforms previously existing methods by overcoming various issues associated with the complexity of document images. Experimental results prove the effectiveness of our proposed method. By virtue of our multi-level classification approach, the text components, halftone components, graphic components and table components are accurately classified respectively which would highly improve OCR accuracy to reduce garbage symbols as well as increase compression ratio thereafter simultaneously.

In order to create an image segmentation method robust to lighting changes, two novel homogeneity criteria of an image region were studied. Both were defined using the Logarithmic Image Processing (LIP) framework whose laws model lighting changes. The first criterion estimates the LIP-additive homogeneity and is based on the LIP-additive law. It is theoretically insensitive to lighting changes caused by variations of the camera exposure-time or source intensity. The second, the LIP-multiplicative homogeneity criterion, is based on the LIP-multiplicative law and is insensitive to changes due to variations of the object thickness or opacity. Each criterion is then applied in Revol and Jourlin’s (1997) region growing method which is based on the homogeneity of an image region. The region growing method becomes therefore robust to the lighting changes specific to each criterion. Experiments on simulated and on real images presenting lighting variations prove the robustness of the criteria to those variations. Compared to a state-of the art method based on the image component-tree, ours is more robust. These results open the way to numerous applications where the lighting is uncontrolled or partially controlled.
