Journal Article
Vasilica, C., Oates, T., Clausner, C., Ormandy, P., Barratt, J., & Graham-Brown, M. (2021). Identifying information needs of patients with IgA Nephropathy, using an innovative social media stepped analytical approach. Kidney International Reports, 6(5), 1317-1325. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ekir.2021.02.030

Introduction Increasingly people with kidney disease are using social media to search for medical information and to find peer-support. IgA nephropathy (IgAN) predominantly affects young adults, demographically the biggest users of...

Flexible character accuracy measure for reading-order-independent evaluation (2020)
Journal Article
Clausner, C., Pletschacher, S., & Antonacopoulos, A. (2020). Flexible character accuracy measure for reading-order-independent evaluation. Pattern Recognition Letters, 131, 390-397. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.patrec.2020.02.003

The extraction of textual information from scanned document pages is a fundamental stage in any digitisation effort and directly determines the success of the overall document analysis and understanding application scenarios. To evaluate and improve... Read More about Flexible character accuracy measure for reading-order-independent evaluation.

Efficient and effective OCR engine training (2019)
Journal Article
Clausner, C., Antonacopoulos, A., & Pletschacher, S. (2020). Efficient and effective OCR engine training. International Journal on Document Analysis and Recognition, 23(1), 73-78. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10032-019-00347-8

We present an efficient and effective approach to train OCR engines using the Aletheia document analysis system. All components required for training are seamlessly integrated into Aletheia: training data preparation, the OCR engine’s training proces...

Highlights of the novel dewaterability estimation test (DET) device (2019)
Journal Article
Scholz, M., Almuktar, S., Clausner, C., & Antonacopoulos, A. (2020). Highlights of the novel dewaterability estimation test (DET) device. Environmental Technology, 41(20), 2594-2602. https://doi.org/10.1080/09593330.2019.1575916

Many industries, which are producing sludge in large quantities, depend on sludge dewatering technology to reduce the corresponding water content. A key design parameter for dewatering equipment is the capillary suction time (CST) test, which has, ho... Read More about Highlights of the novel dewaterability estimation test (DET) device.

Study protocol : responding to the needs of patients with IgA nephropathy, a social media approach (2017)
Journal Article
Graham-Brown, M., Vasilica, C., Oates, T., Light, B., Clausner, C., Antonacopoulos, A., …Barratt, J. (2017). Study protocol : responding to the needs of patients with IgA nephropathy, a social media approach. Clinical Kidney Journal, 11(4), 474-478. https://doi.org/10.1093/ckj/sfx131

Background IgA nephropathy is the most common cause of glomerulonephritis in the Western world and predominantly affects young adults. Demographically these patients are the biggest users of social media. With increasing numbers of patients turning...

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...
