Abstract: The separation of text / image is a major step in the processing of multi-structured documents. It consists of separating the document into two classes: text and image. In this context, it is important to implement approaches that can handle such documents. This paper presents a new method of separating text / image into a multi-structured document. The method developed is based on statistical analysis of texture coupled with a classification method of k-means. This is, initially, to browse the document by a sliding window, and calculate the texture parameters for each pixel, using a method to extract features such as co-occurrence matrix to obtain the characteristic vectors of the document. The distribution of these vectors using the k-means algorithm into two classes used to classify the pixels of the document as part of the text or image.
