Frame Removal For Mushaf Al-Quran Using Irregular Binary Region

Segmentation is a process to remove frame or frame exists in each page of some releases of mushaf Al-Quran. The fault in segmentation process affects the holiness of Al-Quran. The difficulty to identify the appearance of frame around text areas as well as noisy black stripes has caused the segmentation process to be improperly carried out. In this paper, an algorithm for detecting the frame on Al-Quran page without affecting its content is proposed. Firstly, preprocessing was carried out by using the binarisation method. Then, it was followed with the process of detecting the frame in each page. In this stage, the proposed algorithm was applied by calculating the percentage of black pixel of binary from vertical (column) to horizontal (row). The results, based on experiments on several Al-Quran pages from different Al-Quran styles, demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed techniqu

Framework Of Page Segmentation For Mushaf Al-Quran Based On Multiphase Level Segmentation

This paper presents the framework of page segmentation for Mushaf Al-Quran based on Multiphase Level Segmentation (MLS).This study focuses to (a) extract multiform frame shape by using a novel technique Neighbouring Pixel Behaviors (NPB) and (b) segment text line by using a novel technique which is Hybrid Projection Based Neighbouring Properties (HPBNP).Since Mushaf Al-Quran pages are decorated with a different type of pattern and design of a decorative frame.Thus,the decoration frame must be properly to extract out from a page of Mushaf Al-Quran first before properly get only the text of Mushaf Al-Quran regardless of its decoration heterogeneity.Therefore,NPB technique was proposed to remove multiform frame shape from the page of Mushaf Al-Quran.While the text of Mushaf Al-Quran has a several of diacritical marks,hence it will block the process of segmenting text line.Therefore,HPBNP technique was proposed for segment overlapping text line that interfered by diacritical marks or the stroke of the Arabic word. Experimental results of the proposed technique is shown in this paper
