This paper studies automated classification of Human Epithelial Type-2 (HEp-2) cell images which is essential in diagnosing the Autoimmune Diseases (AD). The prevalent approach for this problem makes use of the Bag of Words (BoW) model and sparse coding scheme on over complete dictionaries, where the dictionary dimension is usually much larger than feature dimension. In addition, this approach usually...
Script identification at the word level is challenging because of complex backgrounds and low resolution of video. The presence of graphics and scene text in video makes the problem more challenging. In this paper, we employ gradient angle segmentation on words from video text lines. This paper presents new Gradient-Angular-Features (GAF) for video script identification, namely, Arabic, Chinese, English,...
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...
This paper proposes the use of a new symmetry property based on proximity of the median moments in the wavelet domain. The method divides a given frame into 16 equally sized blocks to classify the true text frame. The average of high frequency subbands of a block is used for computing median moments to brighten the text pixel in a block of video frame. Then K-means clustering with K=2 is applied on...
Text frame classification is needed in many applications such as event identification, exact event boundary identification, navigation, video surveillance in multimedia etc. To the best of our knowledge, there are no methods reported solely dedicated to text frame classifications so far. Hence this paper presents a new approach to text frame classification in video based on capturing local observable...
In this paper, we explore new edge features such as straightness for the elimination of non significant edges from the segmented text portion of a video frame to detect accurate boundary of the text lines in video images. To segment the complete text portions, the method introduces candidate text block selection from a given image. Heuristic rules are formed based on combination of filters and edge...
A method of word extraction based on the area Voronoi diagram is presented in this paper. Firstly, connected components are generated from the input image. Secondly, noise removal is performed including a special symbol detection technique to find some types of special symbols lying between words. Thirdly, base on the area Voronoi diagram, we select appropriate Voronoi edges which separate two neighboring...
