Scan-to-XML : Automatic Generation of Browsable Technical Documents
Résumé
In this paper we experiment and validate an approach for the automatic generation of browsable technical documents. The application demonstrated in this work is restricted to cutaway diagrams with a particular visual representation. The global approach in which it is integrated is of a far more general interest, however. Our principal aim is to automatically generate an XML description of a graphical document that will allow for further use of its content by establishing links within the document or with other documents, thus constructing a corpus of interconnected documents sharing zones of similar content or semantics.
