A new algorithm for segmenting warped text-lines in document images

The digitalization of bound documents either using flatbed scanners or digital cameras often yield images with non-straight text-lines due to a geometrical warp. This paper presents a new algorithm for text-line segmentation for documents captured by digital cameras or scanners. The proposed method reached 97.84% correct segmentation, while the best results offered by its predecessors in the literature yields 95.21%.
