Abstract

Previously, the document flow was mainly through the using of documents in paper form. It created the series of problems during the archiving and searching of the necessary documents. The archive paper documents take a lot of noise points, therefore it is the problem to search of documents in the archive, because there are mistakes in documents, and searching requires a long time. While information technology, it became possible using scanners to convert documents from paper to electronic form. In the process of scanning and due to the fact, that the documents are not always in good shape, the output images are obtained with various defects in the form of noise. Various noise reduction algorithms are used to improve the image quality and remove the noise from scanned documents. This chapter discusses a possibility of using Local Binary Patterns (LBP) operator to make changes into the operation of Non-Local Means (NLM) noise reduction algorithm. As a result, it was possible to improve a quality of scanned images after their processing by the proposed modified algorithm.
