In this paper a general architecture for the computer-aided reconstruction of strip-cut shredded documents is presented. The matching of the remnants is performed on the base of the visual content of the strips, described by means of automatically extracted numerical features. A clustering approach is adopted in order to reduce progressively the dimension of the sets of remnants in which the exhaustive search for the matching need to be performed.
