Abstract
A system for determining bounding boxes includes the input interface and a processor. The input interface is configured to receive an image. The processor is configured to detect a line associated with connected components in the image; determine gap sizes within the line; determine a word structuring element size using the gap sizes; and determine bounding boxes for the line based at least in part on the word structuring element size.
