AIDAS: incremental logical structure discovery in PDF documents
Anjo A. Anjewierden · 2002
AIDAS is part of a research project in which the aim is to turn technical manuals into a database of indexed training material. We describe the approach AIDAS uses to extract the logical document structure from PDF documents. The approach is based on the idea that the layout structure contains cues about the logical structure and that the logical structure can be discovered incrementally.
