An Analytical Study of different Document Image Binarization Methods

30 Jan 2015  ·  Mahua Nandy, Satadal Saha ·

Document image has been the area of research for a couple of decades because of its potential application in the area of text recognition, line recognition or any other shape recognition from the image. For most of these purposes binarization of image becomes mandatory as far as recognition is concerned. Throughout couple decades standard algorithms have already been developed for this purpose. Some of these algorithms are applicable to degraded image also. Our objective behind this work is to study the existing techniques, compare them in view of advantages and disadvantages and modify some of these algorithms to optimize time or performance.
