Abstract

System and method for document image detection, comprising: producing, using a neural network, a superpixel segmentation map of an input image; generating a superpixel binary mask by associating each superpixel of the superpixel segmentation map with a class of a predetermined set of classes; identifying one or more connected components in the superpixel binary mask; for each connected component of the superpixel binary mask, identifying a corresponding minimum bounding polygon; creating one or more image dividing lines based on the minimum bounding polygons; and defining boundaries of one or more objects of interest based on at least a subset of the image dividing lines.
