Abstract

Zoning documents increases the resolution of indexingfrom the image level to the field level. A line-delimited tabulardocument forms a well defined series of regions. However,as image quality decreases, accurate zoning becomesincreasingly difficult. Given a sequence of documents withthe same layout, we present a robust zoning method whichexploits both intra- and inter-document consensus to forma more accurate combined result (template) that can be appliedto any other document with the same layout.
