Abstract

The paper is devoted to a novel high-performance algorithm for automatic segmentation and skew correction of several objects on a scanned image. The complex multi-stage technique includes preprocessing, initial segmentation, classification of connected regions, merging of fragmented regions by heuristic procedure, bounding boxes detection and deskew of rectangular objects. Our method is highly effective owing to unification most of operations in one pass. Algorithm provides users with additional functionality and comfort. The method is evaluated by suggested quantitative quality criteria.
