Abstract
A method for image processing is provided. The method includes: obtaining an image including a table; generating a skeleton graph associated with the table and including a plurality of edges; identifying a first terminal vertex on the plurality of edges; generating a first region of interest for the first terminal vertex; determining a first target within the first region of interest; and repairing the table by adding a first artificial edge between the first terminal vertex and the first target to the skeleton graph.
