Document detection in videos captured by smartphones using a saliency-based method

From LRDE

Abstract

Smartphones are now widely used to digitizepaper documents. Document detection is the first importantstep of the digitization process. Whereas many methods extractlines from contours as candidates for the document boundary, we present in this paper a region-based approach. A key feature of our method is that it relies on visual saliencyusing a recent distance existing in mathematical morphology. We show that the performance of our method is competitive with state-of-the-art methods on the ICDAR Smartdoc 2015 Competition dataset.
