Layout Identification of Printed Mathematical Formula for Recognition

Xuedong Tian, Zhao Yan, Hui Wang, Qiang-jun Wang · 2010

Printed mathematical formulas edited by different soft wares have some obvious differences. To distinguish it before recognition is beneficial to the formula recognition. Based on the statistical analysis to the characteristics of Latex and Word typesetting, an algorithm is designed to identify Latex and Word layout of printed formulas. The experiment indicates that this algorithm can achieve a relative high accuracy to standard printed documents.
