摘要： A character recognition system or the like in which character identities are stored in accordance with a hierarchical order established during processing to separate text image areas from non-text image areas. To separate text image areas from non-text image areas, blocks of pixels are selected from pixel image data by outlining contours of connected components in the pixel image data, determining whether the outlined connected components include text units or non-text units, selectively connecting text units widthwisely to form text lines, and selectively connecting text lines vertically to form text blocks. After blocks of pixels have been so selected, text blocks are segmented into lines of pixel image data, and characters are cut from the lines of pixel image data so obtained. If desired, the characters may be cut by a two-step cutting process in which non-touching and non-overlapping characters are first cut out, and touching characters are then cut out. The cut-out characters are then recognized, and the characters are stored in accordance with an order established during the block selecting process.

摘要： In a character recognition system or the like, method and apparatus for selecting blocks of pixels from pixel image data so as to permit identification and grouping of similarly-typed pixels, such as text-type pixels and non-text-type pixels. Pixel image data is inputted and, if the pixel image data is not binary image data then the pixel image data is converted into binary pixel image data. Blocks of pixel image data are selected by outlining contours of connected components in the pixel image data, determining whether the outlined connected components include text unit or non-text units based on the size of the outlined connected components, selectively connecting text units widthwisely to form text lines based on proximity of adjacent text units, and selectively connecting text lines vertically to form text blocks based on proximity of adjacent text lines and on the position of non-text units between text lines. A hierarchical tree is formed based on the outlined connected components.

摘要： A system for editing the hierarchical tree structure which is created by a block selection system to correspond to a block template which represents a document image, wherein the hierarchical tree structure includes a plurality of nodes, each of which represents a block of document image data in the block template of a document image and contains document feature data defining features of the block of image data. The system operates to download from memory the hierarchical tree structure, generate and display a block template representing a document image corresponding to the hierarchical tree structure in memory, select a block of document image data to be edited in the displayed block template, edit a feature of the selected block of image data and update the document feature data in a node corresponding to the selected block of image data. The system determines whether any document feature data in any node has been affected by updated feature data, and, if so, document feature data in the affected nodes are appropriately altered to reflect the new features of corresponding blocks of image data.

摘要： A document image capture method and scanner, and an image processing apparatus incorporating such a scanner, in which a document is scanned two or more times. The first scan preferably provides bi-level image data, which is analyzed to identify blocks of uniform image type (for example, text, line drawing, grayscale image, or full-color image) within the document. The second scan, preferably performed at lower resolution than the first, provides grayscale or color information, which is substituted in the grayscale or color blocks, respectively, for the bi-level information obtained in the first scan. A third scan, to provide information of the third type, may also be performed. An operator preferably views an image of the document, based on the scanned information, to be sure that the identification and typing of the various blocks has been done correctly, and may instruct that the document be rescanned to provide new data for a designated portion of the document image, if it appears that an error has occurred. The information representing the document image obtained in this way is preferably stored using a set of linked bit maps, one bit map for each block. The memory capacity needed to store the information can be reduced further by treating the page and its margins as a frame, and by storing information about the frame, and any horizontal or vertical lines in the document, in simple vector form. Any portion of the document which is just background is not stored.

摘要： A method for identifying and extracting text data from a table-cell frame. The method includes the steps of tracing connected components of a document image, tracing white contours within a connected component, defining a frame outline based on the white contours, identifying unattached character data inside the frame outline, and defining an initial rectangular area inside the frame outline. The method further includes detecting black pixels in a horizontal or vertical direction from the initial rectangular area in order to create an extended character area, locating boundary pixels lying inside the extended character area for each white contour, identifying black pixels positioned between boundary pixels lying inside the extended character area, combining black pixels positioned between boundary pixels lying inside the extended character area so as to form at least one connected component, recognizing the at least one connected component as a text component if it is not recognized as a vertical line, as a horizontal line, as part of a broken line, or as part of the frame, and defining a character node of a hierarchical tree structure corresponding to the extended character area and containing both the at least one connected component and any identified unattached connected components.
