DOCLIB is a C++ toolkit that provides document/image analysis
capabilities through a thoroughly documented, easy to use interface. This
library seeks to provide a functional, stable, and robust environment that
supports a plethora of image types whereby applications (research or
production) can be built on top of.
Although
DOCLIB currently assumes a Beta status, it has been successfully used as the
underlying library for several government applications. The OO design accounts
for image processing functions that are straightforward in approach, but
also allows room for extendable, "research" oriented behavior(s)
where there exists several different methods of implementation. Because our
main audience are traditional C-devlelopers, many design decisions were made to
facilitate its use for users not familiar with OO concepts. DOCLIB supports a
standard code base that can be built on both Linux and Windows platforms. The
development team is currently working on supporting Solaris 7.1 as well.
