Results caching is an efficient technique for reducing the query processing load, hence it is commonly used in real search engines. This technique, however, bounds the maximum hit...
In this paper, we propose a method to distinguish between handwritten and machine-printed characters with no need to locate character or text-line positions. We transform a local ...
Euclidean distance measure has been used in comparing feature vectors of images, while cosine angle distance measure is used in document retrieval. In this paper, we theoretically...
Perspective distortion always occurs while scanning thick, bound documents, resulting in two problems in the scanned grayscale image ? (i) shade along the `spine' of the book...
In this paper, we introduce a completely new approach to fitting rectangles and squares to given closed regions using our published ideas in [6], [7], [8]. In these papers, we hav...
