A Two-Stage Unsupervised Deep Learning Framework for Degradation Removal in Ancient Documents
Processing historical documents is a complicated task in computer vision due to the presence of degradation, which decreases the performance of Machine Learning models. Recently, Deep Learning (DL) models have achieved state-of-the-art accomplishments in [...]
Simultaneous Detection of Regular Patterns in Ancient Manuscripts Using GAN-Based Deep Unsupervised Segmentation
Document Information Retrieval has attracted researchers’ attention when discovering secrets behind ancient manuscripts. To understand such documents, analyzing their layouts and segmenting their relevant features are fundamental tasks. Recent efforts represent unsupervised document segmentation, [...]
