How to complete table border lines with OpenCV?

asked 2019-03-20 17:41:38 -0600

Hi here,

I am working on extracting table border from PDF files. As below is the raw table border I extracted. You can tell, because of the missing part in tables, there are some missing parts in the extracted borders.

extracted table border lines

With OpenCV, is there a way to complete the table border lines with Hough lines transform etc. ? The lines could be infinity long, because I am more interested in the crossing points so I can reconstruct the table later with reference to some template tables.

Thanks in advance!

Thx for the help! That is actually what I did to get the border as I attached. I still can only get the incomplete table border because of the poor quality of scanned table. Do you know how could I detect the lines and extend the lines to get all joints of table? so I could compare to a template table to reconstruct the table? Thanks.
