This paper focuses on how to transfer and refine those object detection approaches from natural scene images to documents images, and proposes a deep learning-based page object (e.g., tables, formulae, figures) detection method. On the basis of traditional Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) based object detection methods, we redesign the region proposal method, the training strategy, the network structure and replace the Non-Maximum Suppression (NMS) with a dynamic programming algorithm. The experimental results show that it is essential to adjust some modules of the natural scene object detection approaches in order to better process the document images. The proposed method also achieved better performance compared with existing page object detection methods.
