Comparing the thresholding methods like Otsu’s, Adaptive Gaussian, Niblack and Sauvola on a Grantha Palm leaf manuscript with preprocessing technique manually and test them are time consuming. A GUI tool “Manuscript Processing “is developed using Python to make the image processing easier. It combines preprocessing techniques like denoising, filtering, edge preservation and CLAHE (Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization) with required Thresholding method. This software takes a palm leaf manuscript image and processes it to display output.
