Document Binarization Using Topological Clustering Guided Laplacian Energy Segmentation

TL;DR: The current approach for text binarization proposes a clustering algorithm as a preprocessing stage to an energy-based segmentation method to obtain a coarse estimate of the background (BG) and foreground (FG) pixels that is used as a prior for the source and sink points of a graph cut implementation.
