Good News, Everyone! Context driven entity-aware captioning for news images

1 code implementation CVPR 2019 Ali Furkan Biten, Lluis Gomez, Marçal Rusiñol, Dimosthenis Karatzas

We propose a novel captioning method that is able to leverage contextual information provided by the text of news articles associated with an image.

TextTopicNet - Self-Supervised Learning of Visual Features Through Embedding Images on Semantic Text Spaces

1 code implementation4 Jul 2018 Yash Patel, Lluis Gomez, Raul Gomez, Marçal Rusiñol, Dimosthenis Karatzas, C. V. Jawahar

We show that adequate visual features can be learned efficiently by training a CNN to predict the semantic textual context in which a particular image is more probable to appear as an illustration.

Single Shot Scene Text Retrieval

3 code implementations ECCV 2018 Lluís Gómez, Andrés Mafla, Marçal Rusiñol, Dimosthenis Karatzas

In this way, the text based image retrieval task can be casted as a simple nearest neighbor search of the query text representation over the outputs of the CNN over the entire image database.

GANwriting: Content-Conditioned Generation of Styled Handwritten Word Images

3 code implementations ECCV 2020 Lei Kang, Pau Riba, Yaxing Wang, Marçal Rusiñol, Alicia Fornés, Mauricio Villegas

We propose a novel method that is able to produce credible handwritten word images by conditioning the generative process with both calligraphic style features and textual content.

Selective Style Transfer for Text

1 code implementation4 Jun 2019 Raul Gomez, Ali Furkan Biten, Lluis Gomez, Jaume Gibert, Marçal Rusiñol, Dimosthenis Karatzas

This paper explores the possibilities of image style transfer applied to text maintaining the original transcriptions.

STEP -- Towards Structured Scene-Text Spotting

1 code implementation5 Sep 2023 Sergi Garcia-Bordils, Dimosthenis Karatzas, Marçal Rusiñol

We introduce the structured scene-text spotting task, which requires a scene-text OCR system to spot text in the wild according to a query regular expression.

The Robust Reading Competition Annotation and Evaluation Platform

no code implementations18 Oct 2017 Dimosthenis Karatzas, Lluis Gómez, Anguelos Nicolaou, Marçal Rusiñol

The ICDAR Robust Reading Competition (RRC), initiated in 2003 and re-established in 2011, has become a de-facto evaluation standard for robust reading systems and algorithms.

Self-supervised learning of visual features through embedding images into text topic spaces

no code implementations CVPR 2017 Lluis Gomez, Yash Patel, Marçal Rusiñol, Dimosthenis Karatzas, C. V. Jawahar

End-to-end training from scratch of current deep architectures for new computer vision problems would require Imagenet-scale datasets, and this is not always possible.

Self-Supervised Visual Representations for Cross-Modal Retrieval

no code implementations31 Jan 2019 Yash Patel, Lluis Gomez, Marçal Rusiñol, Dimosthenis Karatzas, C. V. Jawahar

Cross-modal retrieval methods have been significantly improved in last years with the use of deep neural networks and large-scale annotated datasets such as ImageNet and Places.

Unsupervised Adaptation for Synthetic-to-Real Handwritten Word Recognition

no code implementations18 Sep 2019 Lei Kang, Marçal Rusiñol, Alicia Fornés, Pau Riba, Mauricio Villegas

Handwritten Text Recognition (HTR) is still a challenging problem because it must deal with two important difficulties: the variability among writing styles, and the scarcity of labelled data.

Candidate Fusion: Integrating Language Modelling into a Sequence-to-Sequence Handwritten Word Recognition Architecture

no code implementations21 Dec 2019 Lei Kang, Pau Riba, Mauricio Villegas, Alicia Fornés, Marçal Rusiñol

The main challenge faced when training a language model is to deal with the language model corpus which is usually different to the one used for training the handwritten word recognition system.

Pay Attention to What You Read: Non-recurrent Handwritten Text-Line Recognition

no code implementations26 May 2020 Lei Kang, Pau Riba, Marçal Rusiñol, Alicia Fornés, Mauricio Villegas

Sequential architectures are a perfect fit to model text lines, not only because of the inherent temporal aspect of text, but also to learn probability distributions over sequences of characters and words.

Multimodal grid features and cell pointers for Scene Text Visual Question Answering

no code implementations1 Jun 2020 Lluís Gómez, Ali Furkan Biten, Rubèn Tito, Andrés Mafla, Marçal Rusiñol, Ernest Valveny, Dimosthenis Karatzas

This paper presents a new model for the task of scene text visual question answering, in which questions about a given image can only be answered by reading and understanding scene text that is present in it.

Content and Style Aware Generation of Text-line Images for Handwriting Recognition

no code implementations12 Apr 2022 Lei Kang, Pau Riba, Marçal Rusiñol, Alicia Fornés, Mauricio Villegas

Once properly trained, our method can also be adapted to new target data by only accessing unlabeled text-line images to mimic handwritten styles and produce images with any textual content.
