Document is modeled in graph representation that enables better understanding of multi-media document and its structure which ultimately could result better cross-media information extraction. We also describe our proposed algorithm that segment document-based on the document modeling approach we described in this paper. %U http://www.lrec-conf.org/proceedings/lrec2008/pdf/702_paper.pdf
