This book addresses digital document enhancement and restoration in these settings. Topics covered include the language and working definitions of the field, current industry practices, the document image class, logic-based image processing within that setting, and algorithms for performing enhancement and restoration of digital documents. Statistical optimization of nonlinear algorithms is treated in considerable depth. Simple idealized examples as well as difficult realistic problems are used extensively throughout the text to illustrate concepts and techniques, and to demonstrate the effectiveness of the methods.
