Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes circuitry configured to recognize a character in an original image by character recognition, to generate a font, calculate a certainty factor of the character recognition, determine a color of the font based on the certainty factor by a first processing method, and determine a replacement color by a second processing method based on the certainty factor, and convert the original image into an editable electronic document including the font and an image in which the character pixel has the replacement color. The replacement color is a color to which a color of a character pixel of the recognized character is replaced.
Claims20
An information processing apparatus comprising circuitry configured to:
- recognize a character in an original image by character recognition, to generate a font;
- calculate a certainty factor of the character recognition;
- determine a color of the font based on the certainty factor by a first processing method;
- determine a replacement color by a second processing method based on the certainty factor, the replacement color being a color to which a color of a character pixel is replaced, the character pixel being a pixel of the recognized character;
- and
- convert the original image into an editable electronic document, the electronic document including the font and an image in which the character pixel has the replacement color.
A method for converting an image, the method comprising:
- recognizing a character in an original image by character recognition, to generate a font;
- calculating a certainty factor of the character recognition;
- determining a color of the font based on the certainty factor by a first processing method;
- determining a replacement color by a second processing method based on the certainty factor, the replacement color being a color to which a color of a character pixel is replaced, the character pixel being a pixel of the recognized character;
- and
- converting the original image into an editable electronic document, the electronic document including the font and an image in which the character pixel has the replacement color.
A non-transitory recording medium storing a plurality of program codes which, when executed by one or more processors, causes the processors to perform a method, the method comprising:
- recognizing a character in an original image by character recognition, to generate a font;
- calculating a certainty factor of the character recognition;
- determining a color of the font based on the certainty factor by a first processing method;
- determining a replacement color by a second processing method based on the certainty factor, the replacement color being a color to which a color of a character pixel is replaced, the character pixel being a pixel of the recognized character;
- and
- converting the original image into an editable electronic document, the electronic document including the font and an image in which the character pixel has the replacement color.
