Abstract: A page layout segmentation algorithm for locating text, background and halftone areas is presented. The algorithm has been implemented on Splash 2-an FPGA-based array processor. The speed as determined by the Xilinx synthesis tools projects an application speed of 5 MHz. For documents of size 1,024 X 1,024 pixels, a significant speedup of two orders of magnitude compared to a SparcStation 20 has been achieved.
