Description
Summary:In the paper, we present a new method for classifying documents with rigid geometry. Our approach is based on the fast and robust Viola-Jones object detection algorithm. The advantages of our proposed method are high speed, the possibility of automatic model construction using a training set, and processing of raw source images without any pre-processing steps such as draft recognition, layout analysis or binarisation. Furthermore, our algorithm allows not only to classify documents, but also to detect the placement and orientation of documents within an image.
