Machine learning based detection of digital documents maliciously recaptured from displays

Touradj Ebrahimi, Evgeniy Upenik, Saleh Gholam Zadeh

We used to say “seeing is believing": this is no longer true. The digitization is changing all aspects of life and business. One of the more noticeable impacts is in how business documents are being authored, exchanged and processed. Many documents such as ...

Generation Typeface Representations: Revisiting Parametric Fonts

Roger Hersch

Outline font technology has long been established as the standard way to represent typefaces, allowing characters to be represented independently of print size and resolution. Although outline font technologies are mature and produce results of sufficient ...

Digitization of Bezier curves and patches using discrete geometry

Roger Hersch

Existing algorithms for rendering Bezier curves and surfaces fall into two categories: iterative evaluation of the parametric equations (generally using forward differencing techniques) or recursive subdivision. In the latter case, all the algorithms rely ...

Visual and Technical Aspects of Type

Roger Hersch

Visual and Technical Aspects of Type gives an introduction to the rules of font design and describes how fonts and their metrics are managed by computers. It is the first book that contains contributions from both type creators and computer scientists. The ...

Font Rasterization, the State of Art

Roger Hersch

Modern personal computers and workstations enable text, graphics and images to be visualized in a resolution independent manner. Office documents can be visualized and printed in the same way on displays, page-printers and photocomposers. Personal computer ...

Advanced grid constraints: performances and limitations

Roger Hersch

Existing font rasterization systems use grid constraints or hints in order to rasterize outline characters. Advanced grid constraints include snapping techniques for producing uniform raster characters without preliminary outline regularization. They also ...

Model-based matching and hinting of fonts

Roger Hersch

In digital computers, phototypesetters and printers, typographic fonts are mainly given by their outline descriptions. Outline descriptions alone do not provide any information about character parts like stems, serifs, shoulders, and bowls. But, in order t ...
