Problems solved by technology

[0004] The method based on the sliding window refers to sliding a multi-scale window from left to right and from top to bottom in the image, and classifying the image in the sliding window to determine whether it is a text area. In order to be able to detect all Text area, this method usually requires a large number of sliding windows, resulting in increased computational complexity and cannot meet real-time requirements
[0005] The method based on connected regions refers to the similarity clustering of pixels according to the inherent properties of the text, such as col

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses an image detection method and device. The image detection method comprises the steps that an image to be detected is obtained, and a maximally stable extremal region (MSER) is extracted from the image to be detected, wherein the MSER is a communication region, and a text region in the image to be detected is obtained by filtering the MSER. The MSER is extracted to serve as a candidate region by extracting the MSER from the image to be detected in a communication region dividing mode, then the extracted MSER is filtered and screened, and finally the text region in the image to be detected is obtained. Region division is conductive to decrease of calculation amount and improvement of the detection efficiency, meanwhile the interference of an image background can be decreased by extracting the MSER, and the accuracy rate during detection of images having complicated backgrounds can be improved.
