  Title Logo and Trademark Recognition Type Book Chapter
  Year 2014 Publication Handbook of Document Image Processing and Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume D Issue Pages 591-646  
  Keywords Logo recognition; Logo removal; Logo spotting; Trademark registration; Trademark retrieval systems  
  Abstract The importance of logos and trademarks in nowadays society is indisputable, variably seen under a positive light as a valuable service for consumers or a negative one as a catalyst of ever-increasing consumerism. This chapter discusses the technical approaches for enabling machines to work with logos, looking into the latest methodologies for logo detection, localization, representation, recognition, retrieval, and spotting in a variety of media. This analysis is presented in the context of three different applications covering the complete depth and breadth of state of the art techniques. These are trademark retrieval systems, logo recognition in document images, and logo detection and removal in images and videos. This chapter, due to the very nature of logos and trademarks, brings together various facets of document image analysis spanning graphical and textual content, while it links document image analysis to other computer vision domains, especially when it comes to the analysis of real-scene videos and images.

  Title Speech balloon contour classification in comics Type Conference Article
  Year 2013 Publication 10th IAPR International Workshop on Graphics Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Comic books digitization combined with subsequent comic book understanding create a variety of new applications, including mobile reading and data mining. Document understanding in this domain is challenging as comics are semi-structured documents, combining semantically important graphical and textual parts. In this work we detail a novel approach for classifying speech balloon in scanned comics book pages based on their contour time series.

  Title A graph-based approach for segmenting touching lines in historical handwritten documents Type Journal Article
  Year 2014 Publication International Journal on Document Analysis and Recognition Abbreviated Journal IJDAR  
  Volume 17 Issue 3 Pages 293-312  
  Keywords Text line segmentation; Handwritten documents; Document image processing; Historical document analysis  
  Abstract Text line segmentation in handwritten documents is an important task in the recognition of historical documents. Handwritten document images contain text lines with multiple orientations, touching and overlapping characters between consecutive text lines and different document structures, making line segmentation a difficult task. In this paper, we present a new approach for handwritten text line segmentation solving the problems of touching components, curvilinear text lines and horizontally overlapping components. The proposed algorithm formulates line segmentation as finding the central path in the area between two consecutive lines. This is solved as a graph traversal problem. A graph is constructed using the skeleton of the image. Then, a path-finding algorithm is used to find the optimum path between text lines. The proposed algorithm has been evaluated on a comprehensive dataset consisting of five databases: ICDAR2009, ICDAR2013, UMD, the George Washington and the Barcelona Marriages Database. The proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art considering the different types and difficulties of the benchmarking data.

  Title On the Influence of Key Point Encoding for Handwritten Word Spotting Type Conference Article
  Year 2014 Publication 14th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 476 - 481  
  Keywords Local descriptors; Interest points; Handwritten documents; Word spotting; Historical document analysis  
  Abstract In this paper we evaluate the influence of the selection of key points and the associated features in the performance of word spotting processes. In general, features can be extracted from a number of characteristic points like corners, contours, skeletons, maxima, minima, crossings, etc. A number of descriptors exist in the literature using different interest point detectors. But the intrinsic variability of handwriting vary strongly on the performance if the interest points are not stable enough. In this paper, we analyze the performance of different descriptors for local interest points. As benchmarking dataset we have used the Barcelona Marriage Database that contains handwritten records of marriages over five centuries.

  Title BH2M: the Barcelona Historical Handwritten Marriages database Type Conference Article
  Year 2014 Publication 22nd International Conference on Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 256 - 261  
  Keywords  
  Abstract This paper presents an image database of historical handwritten marriages records stored in the archives of Barcelona cathedral, and the corresponding meta-data addressed to evaluate the performance of document analysis algorithms. The contribution of this paper is twofold. First, it presents a complete ground truth which covers the whole pipeline of handwriting
recognition research, from layout analysis to recognition and understanding. Second, it is the first dataset in the emerging area of genealogical document analysis, where documents are manuscripts pseudo-structured with specific lexicons and the interest is beyond pure transcriptions but context dependent.

  Title Sequential Word Spotting in Historical Handwritten Documents Type Conference Article
  Year 2014 Publication 11th IAPR International Workshop on Document Analysis and Systems Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 101 - 105  
  Keywords  
  Abstract In this work we present a handwritten word spotting approach that takes advantage of the a priori known order of appearance of the query words. Given an ordered sequence of query word instances, the proposed approach performs a
sequence alignment with the words in the target collection. Although the alignment is quite sparse, i.e. the number of words in the database is higher than the query set, the improvement in the overall performance is sensitively higher than isolated word spotting. As application dataset, we use a collection of handwritten marriage licenses taking advantage of the ordered
index pages of family names.

  Title e-Crowds: a mobile platform for browsing and searching in historical demographyrelated manuscripts Type Conference Article
  Year 2014 Publication 14th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 228 - 233  
  Keywords  
  Abstract This paper presents a prototype system running on portable devices for browsing and word searching through historical handwritten document collections. The platform adapts the paradigm of eBook reading, where the narrative is not necessarily sequential, but centered on the user actions. The novelty is to replace digitally born books by digitized historical manuscripts of marriage licenses, so document analysis tasks are required in the browser. With an active reading paradigm, the user can cast queries of people names, so he/she can implicitly follow genealogical links. In addition, the system allows combined searches: the user can refine a search by adding more words to search. As a second contribution, the retrieval functionality involves as a core technology a word spotting module with an unified approach, which allows combined query searches, and also two input modalities: query-by-example, and query-by-string.

  Title Color descriptor for content-based drawing retrieval Type Conference Article
  Year 2014 Publication 11th IAPR International Workshop on Document Analysis and Systems Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 267 - 271  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Human detection in computer vision field is an active field of research. Extending this to human-like drawings such as the main characters in comic book stories is not trivial. Comics analysis is a very recent field of research at the intersection of graphics, texts, objects and people recognition. The detection of the main comic characters is an essential step towards a fully automatic comic book understanding. This paper presents a color-based approach for comics character retrieval using content-based drawing retrieval and color palette.

  Title Réduction de l’espace de recherche pour les personnages de bandes dessinées Type Conference Article
  Year 2014 Publication 19th National Congress Reconnaissance de Formes et l'Intelligence Artificielle Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords contextual search; document analysis; comics characters  
  Abstract Les bandes dessinées représentent un patrimoine culturel important dans de nombreux pays et leur numérisation massive offre la possibilité d'effectuer des recherches dans le contenu des images. À ce jour, ce sont principalement les structures des pages et leurs contenus textuels qui ont été étudiés, peu de travaux portent sur le contenu graphique. Nous proposons de nous appuyer sur des éléments déjà étudiés tels que la position des cases et des bulles, pour réduire l'espace de recherche et localiser les personnages en fonction de la queue des bulles. L'évaluation de nos différentes contributions à partir de la base eBDtheque montre un taux de détection des queues de bulle de 81.2%, de localisation des personnages allant jusqu'à 85% et un gain d'espace de recherche de plus de 50%.
