Abstract

This chapter describes intelligent multilayer image segmentation algorithm for Optical Character Recognition system. The additional algorithm brings new ability of recognizing colorful texts. Presented solution allows to successfully recognize texts with various background and foreground colors even when their luminosity values are equal. It may be adapted into current OCR systems or work as a standalone pre-processing system.
