Decorated characters are widely used in various documents. Practical optical character reader is required to deal with not only common fonts but also complex designed fonts. Howev...
Poor quality images can significantly affect the accuracy of iris-recognition systems because they do not have enough feature information. However, existing quality measures have f...
—The italic detection and slant rectification is a key step of optical character recognition (OCR). In this paper, a novel method is proposed to detect and rectify italic charact...
This paper presents an efficient image signal processing structure for CMOS image sensors to achieve low area and power consumption. Although CMOS image sensors (CISs) have variou...
A three-dimensional (3D) CMOS imager constructed from stacking a pixel array of image sensors, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) array, and an image signal processor (ISP) arra...
