In contrast to the existing approaches
for document analysis and understanding this paper
represents a system that considers a logical role
for graphic content in predominantly textual, born
digital PDF documents. This work was inspired by
the idea of using structural graphic objects in order
to clarify the logical layout even of complex mostly
graphic documents. Based on visual cognition,
geometric features and spatial relations, the
proposed statistical method distinguishes illustrative
graphic objects from structural graphic objects. We
performed evaluation on two document domains
- newspapers and technical manuals - and found
the results to be reliable. We propose using
logical information about the graphic content to be
a new step towards domain-independent document
understanding systems
