Embodiment Construction

[0088] In order to make the object, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0089] The main purpose of the present invention is to extract texts from complex backgrounds, so as to do pre-processing for subsequent recognition, thereby improving the recognition rate. From the perspective of text visual attributes, the present invention detects abundant closed edges through color polarity difference transformation and edge-neighborhood end bonding to obtain sufficient candidate connected elements, and then through text stroke attribute features and text community attribute features Screening, extracting the connected components belonging to the text from the candidate connected components, and then positioning the final text through multi-channel fusion and removing repeated connected components. The text can be recognized by...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of image recognition, and particularly relates to a text positioning method and system based on the visual structure attribute. Based on the visual attribute of a text, by means of color polarity difference transformation and edge neighborhood tail end bonding, abundant closed edges are detected so that abundant candidate connection elements can be obtained, then character stroke attributive character and text colony attributive character screening is conducted, the connection elements belonging to characters are extracted from the candidate connection elements, and then the final text is positioned through multi-channel blending and repeated connection element removal. The method is high in robustness and can be adapted to the situation that multiple word language categories are mixed, or various font styles exist, or arrangement directions are random, or background interference exists and other situations, the positioned text can be directly provided for OCR software for recognition, and OCR software recognition rate can be increased. The text positioning method and system based on the visual structure attribute can be applied to image video retrieval, junk information blocking, vision assisted navigation, street view positioning, industrial equipment automation and other fields.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of image recognition, and in particular relates to a text positioning method and system based on visual structure attributes. Background technique [0002] The semantic information contained in the text in images and videos is an important clue to understand the content of images and videos, and can be widely used in many fields such as image and video retrieval, auxiliary visual navigation, and industrial equipment automation. However, the OCR (Optical Character Recognition, Optical Character Recognition) recognition rate of text in complex backgrounds is not high, and a general and efficient text region location and text segmentation method is still a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. [0003] For text images in complex backgrounds, the text must be positioned, text segmented, and perspective corrected before OCR recognition, in order to better complete the extraction of text information....
