Abstract

A novel system is described that significantly enhances the usefulness of handwritten notes taken during a presentation by creating a multimedia document that includes scanned images of handouts, personal notes, and links to a multimedia recording of the presentation. Notes are linked to the e-presentation media with automatic content analysis without any special notes capture device. Layout segmentation and template matching automatically detects the presence of presentation handouts during scanning. Presentation-level and slide-level linking of handouts to e-media use text and image features from slides. Experimental results show 95% accuracy in linking of the scanned handouts to the e-presentation media
