Abstract

The present application relates to layout analysis on an image. The layout analysis method comprises: obtaining coordinate information of one or more character lines in an image; generating a layout model corresponding to the image by setting character data in regions in a data structure that correspond to the coordinate information of the one or more character lines, the character data including data indicating the presence of character; scanning the generated layout model to read the character data from the layout model, and performing paragraph division on the layout model based on a relative positional relationship of the read character data in the layout model.
