Kannada Text Image Matching (KTIM) Algorithm.

Abstract

In this paper we present an algorithm to retrieve Kannada text image from huge collection of Kannada image using the Kannada text matching algorithm based on BLPOC (Band - limited phase only correlation) function which provides the higher correlation peak and better discrimination capability. This algorithm can achieve the effective and efficient search and retrieval from a huge collection of Kannada images by matching image at word – level and not at character – level . On the given query image Kannada text matching algorithm based on BPLOC function is used to match the words and retrieves the relevant document.
