## Introduction
This tool performs document image binarization (i.e. transform colour/grayscale
to black-and-white pixels) for OCR using multiple trained models.
The method used is based on _Calvo-Zaragoza/Gallego, 2018. [A selectional auto-encoder approach for document image binarization](https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.10241)_.

```sh
sbb_binarize \
--patches \
-m <directory with models> \
-m <path to directory containing model files> \
<input image> \
<output image>
```
**Note** In virtually all cases, the `--patches` flag will improve results.
