    Notes: Abstract Document images belong to a unique class of images where the information is embedded in the language represented by a series of symbols on the page rather than in the visual objects themselves. Since these symbols tend to appear repeatedly, a domain-specific image coding strategy can be designed to facilitate enhanced compression and retrieval. In this paper we describe a coding methodology that not only exploits component-level redundancy to reduce code length but also supports efficient data access. The approach identifies and organizes symbol patterns which appear repeatedly. Similar components are represented by a single prototype stored in a library and the location of each component instance is coded along with the residual between it and its prototype. A representation is built which provides a natural information index allowing access to individual components. Compression results are competitive and compressed-domain access is superior to competing methods. Applications to network-related problems have been considered, and show promising results.

    Notes: Abstract The problem of off-line handwritten character recognition has eluded a satisfactory solution for several decades. Researchers working in the area of on-line recognition have had greater success, but the possibility of extracting on-line information from static images has not been fully explored. The experience of forensic document examiners assures us that in many cases, such information can be successfully recovered. We outline the design of a system for the recovery of temporal information from static handwritten images. We provide a taxonomy of local, regional and global temporal clues which are often found in hand-written samples, and describe methods for recovering these clues from the image. We show how this system can benefit from obtaining a comprehensive understanding of the handwriting signal and a detailed analysis of stroke and sub-stroke properties. We suggest that the recovery task requires that we break away from traditional thresholding and thinning techniques, and we provide a framework for such analysis. We demonstrate how isolated temporal clues can reliably be extracted from this framework and propose a control structure for integrating the partial information. We show how many seemingly ambiguous situations can be resolved by the derived clues and our knowledge of the writing process, and provide several examples to illustrate our approach.
