Abstract

This paper, in addition to reporting some existing techniques, proposes a new technique for skew correction. It includes a novel document skew detection algorithm based on bounding box technique. The algorithm works quite efficiently for detecting the skew and then correcting it. The method has been experimented on various text documents and very promising results have been achieved given more than 97% accuracy. A comparative study has been reported to provide a detailed analysis of the proposed method together with some other existing methods in the literature.
