Comparison of Skew Detection and Correction Techniques by Applying on Gurmukhi Script

This paper includes the information about the techniques used to detect Skew which are introduced during the scanning of the documents. It also discusses about the tool which have been used to implement the technique. The comparison of the techniques is done on the basis of the angle measured and by applying the algorithm on the Gurmukhi Script. The methods provides a very efficient way to calculate the Skew. Correction in the skewed scanned document image is very important, because it has a direct effect on the reliability and efficiency of the segmentation and feature extraction stages. The method deals with an accurate measure of skew, within-line, and between-line spacings and locates text lines and text blocks. The detection and correction of the images are done.
