Detecting Text in Video Frames
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we propose an edge-based algorithm for artificial text detection in video frames. First, an edge map is created using the Canny edge detector. Then, morphological filtering is used, based on geometrical constraints, in order to connect the vertical edges and discard false alarms. A connected component analysis is performed to the filtered edge map in order to determine a bounding box for every candidate text area. Finally, horizontal and vertical projections are calculated on the edge map of every box and a threshold is applied, refining the result and splitting text areas in text lines. The whole algorithm is applied in multiresolution fashion to ensure text detection with size variability. Experimental results prove that the method is highly effective and efficient for artificial text detection.

Robust Detection of Stylized Text Events in Digital Video
Automatic content-based video indexing is an important research problem. One approach is to extract text appearing in video as an indication of a scene’s semantic content. Most work so far has focused only on detecting the spatial extent of text instances in individual video frames. But text occurring in video usually persists for several seconds. This constitutes a text event that should be en...

Efficient indexing and retrieval of digital video data is an important aspect of video database management. Video indexing involves content analysis of video sequences, which is usually a computationally intensive process. Since most video data are stored in compressed format, processing directly in the compressed domain offers the possibility of computationally more efficient algorithms. We pr...

In this paper, an algorithm for detecting text in images and video frames is proposed. The algorithm contains two steps: initial detection and verification. In the first step, edge feature and morphology operation are employed to locate edge-dense image blocks. Empirically rules are applied on these blocks to get candidate text. In the second step, wavelet-based features are employed to represe...
