Abstract

DIBCO 2009 is the first International Document Image Binarization Contest organized in the context of ICDAR 2009 conference. The general objective of the contest is to identify current advances in document image binarization using established evaluation performance measures. This paper describes the contest details including the evaluation measures used as well as the performance of the 43 submitted methods along with a short description of the top five algorithms.
