ABCNet: Real-time Scene Text Spotting with Adaptive Bezier-Curve Network
Our contributions are three-fold: 1) For the first time, we adaptively fit arbitrarily-shaped text by a parameterized Bezier curve.
FOTS: Fast Oriented Text Spotting with a Unified Network
Incidental scene text spotting is considered one of the most difficult and valuable challenges in the document analysis community.
Bridging the Gap Between End-to-End and Two-Step Text Spotting
Subsequently, we introduce a Bridge that connects the locked detector and recognizer through a zero-initialized neural network.
Visual Re-ranking with Natural Language Understanding for Text Spotting
We propose a post-processing approach to improve scene text recognition accuracy by using occurrence probabilities of words (unigram language model), and the semantic correlation between scene and text.
Semantic Relatedness Based Re-ranker for Text Spotting
We present a scenario where semantic similarity is not enough, and we devise a neural approach to learn semantic relatedness.
A Bilingual, OpenWorld Video Text Dataset and End-to-end Video Text Spotter with Transformer
Most existing video text spotting benchmarks focus on evaluating a single language and scenario with limited data.
SPTS v2: Single-Point Scene Text Spotting
Within the context of our SPTS v2 framework, our experiments suggest a potential preference for single-point representation in scene text spotting when compared to other representations.
ESTextSpotter: Towards Better Scene Text Spotting with Explicit Synergy in Transformer
To this end, we introduce a new model named Explicit Synergy-based Text Spotting Transformer framework (ESTextSpotter), which achieves explicit synergy by modeling discriminative and interactive features for text detection and recognition within a single decoder.
A Feasible Framework for Arbitrary-Shaped Scene Text Recognition
Deep learning based methods have achieved surprising progress in Scene Text Recognition (STR), one of classic problems in computer vision.
AE TextSpotter: Learning Visual and Linguistic Representation for Ambiguous Text Spotting
Unlike previous works that merely employed visual features for text detection, this work proposes a novel text spotter, named Ambiguity Eliminating Text Spotter (AE TextSpotter), which learns both visual and linguistic features to significantly reduce ambiguity in text detection.
