Abstract

The first version of the HistDoc platform was designed as an ImageJ plugin to process images of historical documents. This paper presents the second version of HistDoc that besides updating the image processing capabilities of HistDoc in a number of ways, including processing images of monochromatic documents and incorporating newer and better algorithms for the old functionality, it allows document images to be batch processed in standalone mode in a single machine and in parallel distributed architectures in cluster and grids.
