Featured are an image processing apparatus, method and a medium including an image processing program. The image processing apparatus includes an image inputting means for inputting an image, a character/line drawing region extracting means for extracting a character/line drawing region from the input image, a pseudo-density region extracting means for extracting a pseudo-density region from the input image, an image contracting means for contracting images in an extracted pseudo-density region, an extracted character/line drawing region, and a region other than the pseudo-density region and the character/line drawing region, by mutually different methods, and an image outputting means for outputting the contracted image. The image contracting means performs a smoothing process in the pseudo-density region, performs an averaging process and a subsequent edge enhancing process in the character/line drawing region, and performs an averaging process in a region other than the pseudo-density region and the character/line drawing region.

Image processing apparatus, image processing method, and medium on which image processing program is recorded

The image processing apparatus extracts edge pixels of an input image, connects the edge pixels so as to extract a segment, extracts an inclination angle of the image based on the segment, corrects an inclination of the image based on the angle, determines that correction has ended when the corrected inclination is equal to or less than a predetermined threshold value, and repeats inclination extraction, inclination correction and end determination using an output image obtained after the inclination correction as a new input image until it is determined that correction has ended.

Image processing device, image processing method, and record medium on which the same is recorded

Featured are an image processing apparatus, method and a medium including an image processing program. The image processing apparatus includes an image inputting means for inputting front and back images of an original, an image reversing means for reversing one of the front and back images, a position relationship detection means, image correcting means and image outputting means for outputting the image. The positional relationship detecting means detects the positional relationship between the front image reversed by the image reversing means and the back image from the image inputting means or the positional relationship between the back image reversed by the image reversing means and the front image from the image inputting means. The image correcting means corrects the image to eliminate a ghost image of the image using the positional relationship between the front and back images obtained from the positional relationship detecting means.

The image input part () in an authoring device () reads a plurality of pages of a paper publication and creates images of the pages. In the border eliminating part () of the authoring device (), a common area extraction part () extracts the area common to all of the images of the pages. The layouts with respect to at least either text or drawings in this common area of the images resemble one another. The non common-area replacement part () replaces the color of the portion outside the common area of the images with the background color of the common area, so as to remove the border outside the common area of each of the images. An image output part () in the authoring device () outputs the data of the post-replacement images of all of the pages of the paper publication as the contents of an electronic publication.

A histogram is prepared using the heights of characters in an input alphanumeric character image data set. Based on this histogram, reference line characters are detected from the character row. The upper and lower extracting ordinates of each character in the character row are obtained. Then, the average of each of the upper and lower extracting ordinates in the character row is determined as the ordinate of a reference line for the character row. Thus obtained reference line is used for character recognition.
