Abstract

The invention provides a text detection method and device. The text detection method and device are used for positioning a text region in a natural scene image. The invention relates to a text detection method and device and a text information extraction method and system. The method for detecting a text region in an image comprises the steps of generating assemblies by an inputted image; groupingthe assemblies to form assembly groups; classifying the assembly groups into text groups and non-text groups according to characteristics acquired by distribution of assembly connection; and generating a text region based on the text groups. Compared with the prior art, the method provided by the invention improves the precision and recall rate through the equivalent time cost.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to but not limited to computer vision, image processing and understanding, and more specifically relates to text detection methods and devices. Background technique [0002] The text in natural scene images and video frames carries important information for visual content understanding and retrieval. Detecting text in images, especially natural images or video frames, for many computer vision applications (for example, computerized assistance for visually impaired people or foreigners, automatic retrieval of images or videos, and robotic navigation in urban environments Etc.) is crucial. [0003] However, text detection in natural scenes is a tricky subject. The main challenge lies in the diversification of texts with different fonts, sizes, skew angles, or distortions. Environmental factors such as uneven lighting and reflections, poor lighting conditions, and complex backgrounds add more complexity. [0004] In relat...
