PT Unknown AU Francisco Cruz Oriol Ramos Terrades TI Document segmentation using relative location features BT 21st International Conference on Pattern Recognition PY 2012 BP 1562 EP 1565 AB In this paper we evaluate the use of Relative Location Features (RLF) on a historical document segmentation task, and compare the quality of the results obtained on structured and unstructured documents using RLF and not using them. We prove that using these features improve the final segmentation on documents with a strong structure, while their application on unstructured documents does not show significant improvement. Although this paper is not focused on segmenting unstructured documents, results obtained on a benchmark dataset are equal or even overcome previous results of similar works. ER
