6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, when the evaluation value is lower than a second evaluation threshold, it is judged that there is no mark in the document image.
1. A method for removing a mark in a document image, the method comprising: extracting connected components from a binary image corresponding to the document image; clustering the connected components based on grayscale features of the connected components to obtain one clustering center; searching, within numerical ranges of a clustering radius R from the clustering center and a grayscale threshold T, for a combination (R, T) which causes an evaluation value based on the grayscale features of the connected components to be higher than a first evaluation threshold; and removing the mark in the document image based on the grayscale threshold in the combination; wherein the grayscale features of the connected components comprise: a minimum one of grayscale values of pixels in the document image, which correspond to all black pixels in each of connected components; wherein the removing the mark in the document image based on the grayscale threshold in the combination comprises: removing the connected components, the grayscale features of which are greater than the grayscale threshold, as the mark in the document image.
