Abstract

If a method of character region extraction will have general purposes, it could not but make use of common features which all target images have. This paper suggests these common features should be considered as the conditions for the region to be extracted within a framework of the cost minimization. The method suggested above could be effective by minimizing a cost function estmating the extent that character regions satify quantitatively the features, through Simulated Annealing Method. This method has an uniqueness in that it defines the cost function. Experimental results verify the usefulness of this cost minimization approach to character region extraction.
