摘要:
An image forming apparatus capable of automatically creating an index, and a method for the same. The image forming apparatus includes a scan unit to scan a document, a text/image separation unit to separate the scanned document into a text area and an image area and to separate texts in the text area into symbols, an index determination unit to extract one or more properties of the separated symbols and to compare the extracted symbol properties with one or more index thresholds to determine whether text including the symbols is an index object, and an index page creation unit to create an index page including the text determined as the index object and information about a page including the text that corresponds to the index object. Accordingly, since the index page is automatically created, main contents of each page of the document can be easily selected and/or presented. Also, a search for desired contents in the document is facilitated by a link between the index page and original contents of the pages in the document, thereby improving user convenience.

An image processing method includes determining one or more candidate pixels having variation of brightness in a first direction, among a plurality of pixels constituting an input image, the variation of brightness exceeding a first reference value, determining a certain region in which the total number of candidate pixels existing in a row of pixels in a second direction different from the first direction exceeds a second reference value, and generating an output image free from the determined certain region.

An apparatus usable in an image encoding and/or decoding system includes a segmentation unit to convert a first image of a first resolution into a second image of a second resolution, to segment the second image of the second resolution with one or more blocks of a binary mask layer having a foreground and a background, and to convert the segmented second image into a third image of a third resolution as a segmented image.

An apparatus usable in an image encoding and decoding system includes segmentation unit to divide an image into one or more blocks, to segment the blocks into a binary mask layer of a foreground and a background according to a cost optimized function and a feature vector to generate a segmentation image according to the segmented blocks.

摘要:
To compensate an image, a profile thereof is obtained from pixel values in a marginal area of the image. A background value of the image determined from the profile and correction to the image is performed in accordance with the background value and the profile.

An apparatus of a text image coding and decoding system includes a decomposer to decompose image data to extract a stripe image having one or more symbols, a matching unit to match the symbols with reference symbols of a symbol dictionary, and a dynamic symbol caching unit to generate one or more new symbols when the one or more new symbols of the symbols are not included in the symbol dictionary, and to remove the least used one or more of the reference symbols, so that the symbol dictionary is updated as an updated symbol dictionary with the one or more new symbols and without the least used one or more reference symbols.
摘要:
A sheet of a document is scanned, character objects are extracted from a scan image, the extracted character objects are divided line by line, and the direction of the document is set on the basis of a blank percentage determined according to start and end positions of lines. If the direction of the document is different from that of a previous document, an image processing unit rotates the scan image.
