Design of optimal Gaussian operators in small neighbourhoods

TL;DR: It appears that certain well known masks are relatively inaccurate and anisotropic; new 3 × 3 and 5 × 5 masks are designed which are optimal in these respects.

Whiteboard Video Summarization via Spatio-Temporal Conflict Minimization

TL;DR: A method is presented that generates static image summaries of handwritten whiteboard content from lecture videos recorded with still cameras, which generates a spatio-temporal index for the handwritten content in the video, and is used for temporal segmentation by detecting and removing conflicts between content regions.

Mobile Retriever: access to digital documents from their physical source

TL;DR: An image based document retrieval system which runs on camera enabled mobile devices that uses token triplets that define the orientation of three corresponding tokens to effectively prune the false positives and identify the correct page to retrieve.

Automatic recognition of handwritten medical forms for search engines

TL;DR: It is shown that a few recognized characters, returned by handwriting recognition, can be used to construct a linguistic model capable of representing a medical topic category, thereby improving handwriting recognition performance and allowing PCR (Pre-Hospital Care Report) forms to be tagged with a topic category and subsequently searched by information retrieval systems.

ISauvola: Improved Sauvola’s Algorithm for Document Image Binarization

TL;DR: In this paper, a new binarization technique for document images is presented, which is based on the most commonly used Binarization method: Sauvola's, which performs relatively well on classical documents, however, three main defects remain: the window parameter does not fit automatically to the image content, is not robust to low contrasts, and is not invariant with respect to contrast inversion.
