Binarization

Binarization for document images

Examples

This tool performs document image binarization using a trained ResNet50-UNet model.

Clone the repository, enter it and run

pip install .

Pre-trained models in HDF5 format can be downloaded from here:

We also provide a Tensorflow saved_model via Huggingface:

sbb_binarize \
  -m <path to directory containing model files \
  <input image> \
  <output image>

Images containing a lot of border noise (black pixels) should be cropped beforehand to improve the quality of results.

sbb_binarize -m /path/to/model/ myimage.tif myimage-bin.tif

To use the OCR-D interface:

ocrd-sbb-binarize --overwrite -I INPUT_FILE_GRP -O OCR-D-IMG-BIN -P model "/var/lib/sbb_binarization"
