A call for contributions is open for improved algorithms that better deal with segmented ink scans, which may contain a black border and whose paper region may be a pixel intensity of ~220-240. The algorithm must be optimized enough to not (or only marginally) increase computation time. There’s much in the academic literature about this problem. NFIQ 1 employed its own heuristic to remove ink scan background noise.
The improved algorithm would replace copyRemovingNearWhiteFrame() and would be contributed to ISO/IEC 29794-4 in a future revision.
