Towards Robust Visual Information Extraction in Real World: New Dataset and Novel Solution

HCIILAB/EPHOIE 24 Jan 2021

Visual information extraction (VIE) has attracted considerable attention recently owing to its various advanced applications such as document understanding, automatic marking and intelligent education.

Scene Text Retrieval via Joint Text Detection and Similarity Learning

lanfeng4659/STR-TDSL CVPR 2021

Such a task is usually realized by matching a query text to the recognized words, outputted by an end-to-end scene text spotter.

PAN++: Towards Efficient and Accurate End-to-End Spotting of Arbitrarily-Shaped Text

whai362/pan_pp.pytorch 2 May 2021

By systematically comparing with existing scene text representations, we show that our kernel representation can not only describe arbitrarily-shaped text but also well distinguish adjacent text.

ABCNet v2: Adaptive Bezier-Curve Network for Real-time End-to-end Text Spotting

Yuliang-Liu/ABCNet_Chinese 8 May 2021

Previous methods can be roughly categorized into two groups: character-based and segmentation-based, which often require character-level annotations and/or complex post-processing due to the unstructured output.

Dictionary-Guided Scene Text Recognition

VinAIResearch/dict-guided CVPR 2021

Language prior plays an important role in the way humans perceive and recognize text in the wild.
