  2. Given a book, we extract per-page text leadings and features. We select the most salient pages and image descriptors, and we compute a rough text segmentation that we use to train a SVM classifier. We re-launch the prediction to all original features to obtain a fine segmentation. We convert these sparse text positions into a dense text region representation, and we finally extract text blocks and lines. Evaluated on a heterogeneous corpus content: ~3K pages, ~4K blocks, ~66K lines Robust to: - Different writing styles - High layout variability - One, two or more columns, marginalia, calendars - Presence of capital letters, portraits, ornamental bands, graphical contents - Aging – holes, spots, ink bleed-through, fading, missing parts, damages Text lines Original Text regions Text blocks Titel
