In this paper, we present a date spotting based information retrieval system for natural scene image and video frames where text appears with complex backgrounds. Text retrieval in such scene/video frames is difficult because of blur, low resolution, background noise, etc. In our proposed framework, a line based date spotting approach using Hidden Markov Model is used to detect the date information...
Use of multiple scripts for information communication through various media is quite common in a multilingual country. Optical character recognition of such document images or videos assists in indexing them for effective information retrieval. Hence, script identification from multi-lingual documents/images is a necessary step for selecting the appropriate OCR, due the absence of a single OCR system...
Script identification is an essential step for the efficient use of the appropriate OCR in multilingual document images. There are various techniques available for script identification from printed and handwritten document images, but script identification from video frames has not been explored much. This paper presents a study of some pre-processing techniques and features for word-wise script...
This paper presents a two-stage method for multi-oriented video character segmentation. Words segmented from video text lines are considered for character segmentation in the present work. Words can contain isolated or non-touching characters, as well as touching characters. Therefore, the character segmentation problem can be viewed as a two stage problem. In the first stage, text cluster is identified...
Word segmentation has become a research topic to improve OCR accuracy for video text recognition, because a video text line suffers from arbitrary orientation, complex background and low resolution. Therefore, for word segmentation from arbitrarily-oriented video text lines, in this paper, we extract four new gradient directional features for each Canny edge pixel of the input text line image to produce...
There are many video images where hand written text may appear. Therefore handwritten scene text detection in video is essential and useful for many applications for efficient indexing, retrieval etc. Also there are many video frames where text line may be multi-oriented in nature. To the best of our knowledge there is no work on handwritten text detection in video, which is multi-oriented in nature...
