| Abstract | We present a complete method for article segmentation in old newspapers, which deals with complex layouts analysis of degraded documents. The designed workflow can process large amounts of documents and generates digital objects in METS/ALTO format in order to facilitate the indexing and the browsing of information in digital libraries. The analysis of the document image is performed by a two stages scheme. Pixels are labeled in a first stage with a Conditional Random Field model in order to intent to label the areas of interest with a low logical level. Then this first logical representation of the document content is analyzed in a second stage to get a higher logical representation including article segmentation and reading order. This top-level structural analysis relies on the generation of an article separation grid applied recursively on the document image, allowing analyzing any type of Manhattan page layout, even for complex structures with multiple columns and overlapping entities. This method which benefits from both a local analysis using a probabilistic model trained using machine learning procedures, and a more global structural analysis using recursive rules, is evaluated on a dataset of daily local press document images covering several time periods and different page layouts, to prove its effectiveness. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
