Abstract: Techniques for binarization and extraction of information from image data are disclosed. The inventive concepts include independently binarizing portions of the image data on the basis of individual features, e.g. per connected component, and using multiple different binarization thresholds to obtain the best possible binarization result for each portion of the image data. Determining the quality of each binarization result may be based on attempted recognition and/or extraction of information therefrom. Independently binarized portions may be assembled into a contiguous result. In one embodiment, a method includes: identifying a region of interest within a digital image; generating a plurality of binarized images based on the region of interest using different binarization thresholds; and extracting data from some or all of the plurality of binarized images. The extracted data includes connected components that overlap and/or are obscured by unique background.

Abstract: A block-based storage system may implement page cache write logging. Write requests for a data volume maintained at a storage node may be received at a storage node. A page cache for may be updated in accordance with the request. A log record describing the page cache update may be stored in a page cache write log maintained in a persistent storage device. Once the write request is performed in the page cache and recorded in a log record in the page cache write log, the write request may be acknowledged. Upon recovery from a system failure where data in the page cache is lost, log records in the page cache write log may be replayed to restore to the page cache a state of the page cache prior to the system failure.
