Abstract(in English) The rules and the field-separators in document images make the partition of regions clear,and they often give useful "hints" about the document structure.This report describes an algorithm for extraction of arbitrary rules,lines and field-separators in document images.The local Hough transform is used for detecting line segments of the rules,and the auto-correlation function is used for separating lines and rules from character strings.The algorithm makes it possible to detect and extract,not only solid lines,but dotted lines,dashed lines or chain lines.Many kinds of decorated field-separators can also be extracted.
