  Title The ICDAR/GREC 2013 Music Scores Competition: Staff Removal Type Book Chapter
  Year 2014 Publication Graphics Recognition. Current Trends and Challenges Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 8746 Issue Pages 207-220  
  Keywords Competition; Graphics recognition; Music scores; Writer identification; Staff removal  
  Abstract The first competition on music scores that was organized at ICDAR and GREC in 2011 awoke the interest of researchers, who participated in both staff removal and writer identification tasks. In this second edition, we focus on the staff removal task and simulate a real case scenario concerning old and degraded music scores. For this purpose, we have generated a new set of semi-synthetic images using two degradation models that we previously introduced: local noise and 3D distortions. In this extended paper we provide an extended description of the dataset, degradation models, evaluation metrics, the participant’s methods and the obtained results that could not be presented at ICDAR and GREC proceedings due to page limitations.

  Title Large-scale Graph Indexing using Binary Embeddings of Node Contexts Type Conference Article
  Year 2015 Publication 10th IAPR-TC15 Workshop on Graph-based Representations in Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 9069 Issue Pages 208-217  
  Keywords Graph matching; Graph indexing; Application in document analysis; Word spotting; Binary embedding  
  Abstract Graph-based representations are experiencing a growing usage in visual recognition and retrieval due to their representational power in front of classical appearance-based representations in terms of feature vectors. Retrieving a query graph from a large dataset of graphs has the drawback of the high computational complexity required to compare the query and the target graphs. The most important property for a large-scale retrieval is the search time complexity to be sub-linear in the number of database examples. In this paper we propose a fast indexation formalism for graph retrieval. A binary embedding is defined as hashing keys for graph nodes. Given a database of labeled graphs, graph nodes are complemented with vectors of attributes representing their local context. Hence, each attribute counts the length of a walk of order k originated in a vertex with label l. Each attribute vector is converted to a binary code applying a binary-valued hash function. Therefore, graph retrieval is formulated in terms of finding target graphs in the database whose nodes have a small Hamming distance from the query nodes, easily computed with bitwise logical operators. As an application example, we validate the performance of the proposed methods in a handwritten word spotting scenario in images of historical documents.

  Title Hierarchical Plausibility-Graphs for Symbol Spotting in Graphical Documents Type Book Chapter
  Year 2014 Publication Graphics Recognition. Current Trends and Challenges Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 8746 Issue Pages 25-37  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Graph representation of graphical documents often suffers from noise such as spurious nodes and edges, and their discontinuity. In general these errors occur during the low-level image processing viz. binarization, skeletonization, vectorization etc. Hierarchical graph representation is a nice and efficient way to solve this kind of problem by hierarchically merging node-node and node-edge depending on the distance. But the creation of hierarchical graph representing the graphical information often uses hard thresholds on the distance to create the hierarchical nodes (next state) of the lower nodes (or states) of a graph. As a result, the representation often loses useful information. This paper introduces plausibilities to the nodes of hierarchical graph as a function of distance and proposes a modified algorithm for matching subgraphs of the hierarchical graphs. The plausibility-annotated nodes help to improve the performance of the matching algorithm on two hierarchical structures. To show the potential of this approach, we conduct an experiment with the SESYD dataset.

  Title Spotting Graphical Symbols in Camera-Acquired Documents in Real Time Type Book Chapter
  Year 2014 Publication Graphics Recognition. Current Trends and Challenges Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 8746 Issue Pages 3-10  
  Keywords  
  Abstract In this paper we present a system devoted to spot graphical symbols in camera-acquired document images. The system is based on the extraction and further matching of ORB compact local features computed over interest key-points. Then, the FLANN indexing framework based on approximate nearest neighbor search allows to efficiently match local descriptors between the captured scene and the graphical models. Finally, the RANSAC algorithm is used in order to compute the homography between the spotted symbol and its appearance in the document image. The proposed approach is efficient and is able to work in real time.

  Title Classification of Administrative Document Images by Logo Identification Type Book Chapter
  Year 2014 Publication Graphics Recognition. Current Trends and Challenges Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 8746 Issue Pages 49-58  
  Keywords Administrative Document Classification; Logo Recognition; Logo Spotting  
  Abstract This paper is focused on the categorization of administrative document images (such as invoices) based on the recognition of the supplier’s graphical logo. Two different methods are proposed, the first one uses a bag-of-visual-words model whereas the second one tries to locate logo images described by the blurred shape model descriptor within documents by a sliding-window technique. Preliminar results are reported with a dataset of real administrative documents.

  Title A Sliding Window Framework for Word Spotting Based on Word Attributes Type Conference Article
  Year 2015 Publication Pattern Recognition and Image Analysis, Proceedings of 7th Iberian Conference , ibPRIA 2015 Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 9117 Issue Pages 652-661  
  Keywords Word spotting; Sliding window; Word attributes  
  Abstract In this paper we propose a segmentation-free approach to word spotting. Word images are first encoded into feature vectors using Fisher Vector. Then, these feature vectors are used together with pyramidal histogram of characters labels (PHOC) to learn SVM-based attribute models. Documents are represented by these PHOC based word attributes. To efficiently compute the word attributes over a sliding window, we propose to use an integral image representation of the document using a simplified version of the attribute model. Finally we re-rank the top word candidates using the more discriminative full version of the word attributes. We show state-of-the-art results for segmentation-free query-by-example word spotting in single-writer and multi-writer standard datasets.

  Title Semi-Supervised Learning for Cursive Handwriting Recognition using Keyword Spotting Type Conference Article
  Year 2012 Publication 13th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 49-54  
  Keywords  
  Abstract State-of-the-art handwriting recognition systems are learning-based systems that require large sets of training data. The creation of training data, and consequently the creation of a well-performing recognition system, requires therefore a substantial amount of human work. This can be reduced with semi-supervised learning, which uses unlabeled text lines for training as well. Current approaches estimate the correct transcription of the unlabeled data via handwriting recognition which is not only extremely demanding as far as computational costs are concerned but also requires a good model of the target language. In this paper, we propose a different approach that makes use of keyword spotting, which is significantly faster and does not need any language model. In a set of experiments we demonstrate its superiority over existing approaches.

  Title An Efficient Staff Removal Technique from Printed Musical Documents Type Conference Article
  Year 2010 Publication 20th International Conference on Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 1965–1968  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Staff removal is an important preprocessing step of the Optical Music Recognition (OMR). The process aims to remove the stafflines from a musical document and retain only the musical symbols, later these symbols are used effectively to identify the music information. This paper proposes a simple but robust method to remove stafflines from printed musical scores. In the proposed methodology we have considered a staffline segment as a horizontal linkage of vertical black runs with uniform height. We have used the neighbouring properties of a staffline segment to validate it as a true segment. We have considered the dataset along with the deformations described in for evaluation purpose. From experimentation we have got encouraging results.

  Title Symbol Classification using Dynamic Aligned Shape Descriptor Type Conference Article
  Year 2010 Publication 20th International Conference on Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 1957–1960  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Shape representation is a difficult task because of several symbol distortions, such as occlusions, elastic deformations, gaps or noise. In this paper, we propose a new descriptor and distance computation for coping with the problem of symbol recognition in the domain of Graphical Document Image Analysis. The proposed D-Shape descriptor encodes the arrangement information of object parts in a circular structure, allowing different levels of distortion. The classification is performed using a cyclic Dynamic Time Warping based method, allowing distortions and rotation. The methodology has been validated on different data sets, showing very high recognition rates.

  Title Perceptual Image Retrieval by Adding Color Information to the Shape Context Descriptor Type Conference Article
  Year 2010 Publication 20th International Conference on Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 1594–1597  
  Keywords  
  Abstract In this paper we present a method for the retrieval of images in terms of perceptual similarity. Local color information is added to the shape context descriptor in order to obtain an object description integrating both shape and color as visual cues. We use a color naming algorithm in order to represent the color information from a perceptual point of view. The proposed method has been tested in two different applications, an object retrieval scenario based on color sketch queries and a color trademark retrieval problem. Experimental results show that the addition of the color information significantly outperforms the sole use of the shape context descriptor.
