TLDR
The proposed method does not require any parameter tuning by the user and can deal with degradations which occur due to shadows, non-uniform illumination, low contrast, large signal-dependent noise, smear and strain.

Survey on Restoration of Degraded Document using Different Thresholding Techniques

TL;DR: Comparative study on some local adaptive thresholding methods such as niblack, sauvola, wolf and feng are done and its quality over different images is measured in terms of PSNR and correlation.

Automatic Document Image Binarization.

TL;DR: An automatic document image binarization algorithm to segment the text from heavily degraded document images by using a two band-pass filtering approach for background noise removal, and Bayesian optimization for automatic hyperparameter selection for optimal results.

An advanced, robust binarization and character recognition in document images based on raspberry pi

TL;DR: This work proposes a robust system for binarization and character recognition of deteriorated document images using a modified adaptive image contrast based method and is implemented on a low cost minicomputer board named Raspberry Pi.

Method and system for product recognition

TL;DR: In this article, a method of product recognition is proposed, comprising decomposing a product image of into a set of frequency components, performing a frequency analysis for each frequency component in the set of frequencies, detecting a plurality of edge pixels of the image based on the frequency analysis, selecting a set interested pixels in the region of each of the edge pixels, creating a quantized product image, and creating a normalized histogram of the quantized image using the sets of interested pixels selected for each edge pixels.

Survey over image thresholding techniques and quantitative performance evaluation

TL;DR: 40 selected thresholding methods from various categories are compared in the context of nondestructive testing applications as well as for document images, and the thresholding algorithms that perform uniformly better over nonde- structive testing and document image applications are identified.
