Abstract

The quality of document images captured by digital camera might be degraded because of non-uniform illumination condition. The high illumination (glare distortion) affects on the contrast condition of the document images. This condition leads to the poor contrast condition of the text in document image. So, optical character recognition (OCR) system might hardly recognize text in the high illuminated area. The method to increase the contrast condition between text (foreground) and background in high illuminated area is proposed in this paper.
