This paper presents a new model-based document image segmentation scheme that uses XML-DTDs (eXtensible Markup Language Document Type Definitions). Given a document image, the algorithm has the ability to select the appropriate model. A new wavelet-based tool has been designed for distinguishing text from non-text regions and characterization of font sizes. Our model-based analysis scheme makes use of this tool for identifying the logical components of a document image.
