Abstract
This article discusses the design and development of a neural network algorithm for the segmentation of text areas in real-scene images. After reviewing the available neural network models, the U-net model was chosen as a basis. Then an algorithm for detecting text areas in real-scene images was proposed and implemented. The experimental training of the network allows one to define the neural network parameters such as the size of input images and the number and types of the network layers. Bilateral and low-pass filters were considered as a preprocessing stage. The number of images in the KAIST Scene Text Database was increased by applying rotations, compression, and splitting of the images. The results obtained were found to surpass competing methods in terms of the F-measure value.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
