This paper proposes a statistical approach to degraded handwritten form image preprocessing including binarization and form line removal. The degraded image is modeled by a Markov...
In this paper, spherical harmonics are proposed as shape descriptors for 2d images. We introduce the concept of connectivity; 2d images are decomposed using connectivity which is ...
In this paper, we propose a generalized shock model for the enhancement and restoration of degraded gray-level character images. This model is a quasi-linear hyperbolic partial di...
Active models are widely used in applications like image segmentation and tracking. Region-based active models are known for robustness to weak edges and high computational comple...
