End-To-End Text Detection Using Deep Learning
Text detection in the wild is the problem of locating text in images of everyday scenes. It is a challenging problem due to the complexity of everyday scenes. This problem possesses a great importance for many trending applications, such as self-driving cars. Previous research in text detection has …

Extracting generic text information from images
As a vast amount of text appears everywhere, including natural scene, web pages and videos, text becomes very important information for different applications. Extracting text information from images and video frames is the first step of applying them to a specific application and this task is …

MULTILINGUAL TEXT READING IN NATURAL SCENE IMAGES
Reading the texts will greatly help to better understand the image contents. In this thesis, we address the text reading problem by solving each of the sequential components, namely, text detection, text segmentation and text recognition. The first problem for text reading is to locate the text …

Prioritized text spotting using SLAM
… observations to achieve efficient and effective text detection and decoding for a sensor suite moving through an environment rich in text at a variety of scales and orientations with respect to the observer. We use simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) to isolate planar "tiles" …

Experiments in Image Segmentation for Automatic US License Plate Recognition
… systems generally fail when confronted with textured or poorly contrasted backgrounds, therefore creating the need for proper image segmentation prior to classification. The image segmentation problem in LPR is examined in two stages: license plate region detection and license plate character …

Text Extraction From Natural Scene: Methodology And Application
… Most of these applications can benefit from text information extraction in natural scene. However, scene text extraction is a challenging problem to be solved, due to cluttered background of natural scene and multiple patterns of scene text itself. To solve these problems, this dissertation …

Robust Number Plate Detection Algorithms
… system, the most crucial part is number plate detection. The research presented in this thesis focuses on the detection mechanism and will rely on a third-party Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software for character recognition. Number Plate Detection (NPD) is a well-explored problem with …

Multimodal Indexing of Presentation Videos
… We introduce four major semantic indexing cues: text, speaker faces, graphics, and mosaics, going beyond standard tag based searches and simple video playbacks. This work aims at recognizing visual content "in the wild", where the system cannot rely on any additional information besides the video …
