Problems solved by technology

However, the DeepFont method uses a relatively simple synthesis method to synthesize training data, and the data is quite different from natural scene pictures in terms of authenticity.
This defect makes it difficult to accurately identify Chinese fonts in natural scene pictures when dealing with pictures with noisy text backgrounds and rich font effects.

Embodiment Construction

[0052] Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, further describe the present invention through embodiment, but do not limit the scope of the present invention in any way.

[0053] The invention provides a font recognition method based on picture synthesis and transfer learning. First of all, the present invention uses a brand-new picture synthesis method to integrate texts of different fonts and languages ​​into natural scene pictures to obtain more realistic pictures. These pictures can train font classifiers and text positioning with high recognition accuracy device. The text locator then locates more text images from Internet images, and these images are used to further improve the recognition accuracy of the font classifier.

[0054] Flow chart of the present invention is attached figure 1 As shown, the specific implementation includes the following steps:

[0055] 1 Synthesize a large number of pictures containing text in different fonts, and record the location...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for identifying a text font in a natural scene picture. With a picture synthesis method, lots of natural scene pictures that are integrated with different font texts and are similar to real effects specifically are obtained; picture training is carried out to obtain a font identifying device and a text location device; more text pictures are located in an internetpicture by using the text location device; and on the basis of a migration learning method, learning is carried out in the pictures by using the font identifying device, so that the identification precision is improved. According to the invention, the high-quality training picture is synthesized automatically, so that manual marking needing lots of time and efforts is avoided and the cost is lowered substantially; with the font classification device, the high identification precision is realized. Besides, because of introduction of the migration learning method, the accuracy of the font classification device is enhanced by using lots of font-tag-free pictures.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the fields of computer image processing and artificial intelligence, and relates to a font recognition method, in particular to a method for recognizing text fonts in natural scene pictures. Background technique [0002] In the field of computer image processing, font recognition refers to allowing the computer to automatically determine which font the text in the picture belongs to in the font list. The font list is established by people in advance and usually includes the most commonly used fonts in real life. If the font of the text in a picture does not belong to the above font list, let the computer find the most similar font from the font list. Font recognition in natural scene pictures specifically refers to finding out the position of the text in a natural scene picture containing text, and then identifying the font of the text. Automatic recognition of text fonts has considerable practical value in meeting people's co...
