The following diagram shows how sections connect to each other to form tasks:

In this article, we’ll discuss the section Document Normalization which is usually the 3rd section of a “Normalize-a-Document” task.

Section 3 - Document Normalization

The purpose of this section is to generate a standard rectangular image of the “document” localized in the section “Document Detection”.

A document is an object that exhibit clear boundaries.

Constituting Stages

This section consists of just one stage:

• Document-normalizing: to normalize the document which may involve one or several of these actions:
  • Deskew
  • Perspective correction
  • Colour conversion
  • Brightness and contrast adjustment
