Underexposed heterogeneous complex-background and graphical embossing text documents are treated using proposed preprocessing image-abstraction framework that can deliver the effective structure preserved abstracted output by manipulating visual-features from input images. Reading of the text character in such images is extremely poor; hence, the framework effectively boosted the significant image properties and quality features at every stage. Work effectively preserves the foreground structure of an image by comprehensively integrating the sequence of NPR filters and diminishes the background content of an image, and in this way, the framework contributes to separation of foreground text from image background. Effectiveness of the proposed work has been validated by conducting the trials on the selected dataset. In addition, user's visual-feedback and image quality assessment techniques were also used to evaluate the framework. Based on the obtained abstraction output, this work extracts text-character by wisely utilizing traditional image processing techniques with an average accuracy of 98.91%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
