Scene text images feature an abundance of font style variety but a dearth of data in any given query. Recognition methods must be robust to this variety or adapt to the query data...
A new method for text detection and recognition in natural scene images is presented in this paper. In the detection process, color, texture, and OCR statistic features are combin...
We present a semi-Markov model for recognizing scene text that integrates character and word segmentation with recognition. Using wavelet features, it requires only approximate lo...
