Finding Text in Natural Scenes by Figure-Ground Segmentation
Much past research on finding text in natural scenes uses bottom-up grouping processes to detect candidate text features as a first processing step. While such grouping procedures...

Figure/Ground Assignment in Natural Images
Abstract. Figure/ground assignment is a key step in perceptual organization which assigns contours to one of the two abutting regions, providing information about occlusion and all...

Grouping Using Factor Graphs: An Approach for Finding Text with a Camera Phone
Abstract. We introduce a new framework for feature grouping based on factor graphs, which are graphical models that encode interactions among arbitrary numbers of random variables....

An Adaptive Algorithm for Text Detection from Natural Scenes
We present a new adaptive algorithm for automatic detection of text from a natural scene. The initial cues of text regions are first detected from the captured image/video. An ada...
