Every day people discover new uses for them from photographing teaching boards to documents. One of the difficulties of using cameras is the occurrence of specular noise whenever the photographed...
We present a spatially variant framework for correcting uneven illumination and color cast, problems commonly associated with digitized books. The core of our method is a color image segmentation algorithm based on watershed transform and noise thresholding. We propose a threshold estimation method using the histogram of the gradient magnitude. The critical parameters of the segmentation are further...
