Method And System For Detecting And Correcting Orientation Of Document Images

Abstract: This disclosure relates to method and system for detecting orientation. The method includes detecting a plurality of regions in a document image, each region including text data, and determining positional information of each of the regions; for each of the plurality of regions, determining a region orientation to be one of first orientation or second orientation based on height and width of the region; determining a ratio of number of regions having first orientation and number of regions having second orientation; determining page orientation of the image as third orientation or second orientation, or rotating the image by 90° in counter-clockwise direction based on the ratio; determining first optical character recognition (OCR) data and second OCR data corresponding to the image and the image rotated by 180°, respectively; and determining number of correct words in first OCR data and second OCR data based on comparison with dictionary data.
