Creating a complete workflow for digitising historical census documents : considerations and evaluation (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Clausner, C., Hayes, J., Antonacopoulos, A., & Pletschacher, S. (2017). Creating a complete workflow for digitising historical census documents : considerations and evaluation. . https://doi.org/10.1145/3151509.3151525

The 1961 Census of England and Wales was the first UK census to make use of computers. However, only bound volumes and microfilm copies of printouts remain, locking a wealth of information in a form that is practically unusable for research. In this...

Censuses comprise a wealth of information at a large (national) scale that allow governments (who commission them) and the public to have a detailed snapshot of how people live (geographical distribution and characteristics). In addition to underpinn... Read More about Unearthing the recent past : digitising and understanding statistical information from census tables.

Effective geometric restoration of distorted historical documents for large-scale digitization (2017)
Journal Article
Yang, P., Antonacopoulos, A., Clausner, C., Pletschacher, S., & Qi, J. (2017). Effective geometric restoration of distorted historical documents for large-scale digitization. IET Image Processing, 11(10), 841-853. https://doi.org/10.1049/iet-ipr.2016.0973

Due to storage conditions and material’s non-planar shape, geometric distortion of the 2-D content is widely present in scanned document images. Effective geometric restoration of these distorted document images considerably increases character recog...
