Text Extraction from Image
Keywords:
Text Extraction, Document Text Images, Heterogeneous Images, OCR, Text DetectionAbstract
Text extraction is one of the key tasks in document image analysis. Automatic text extraction without characters recognition capabilities is to extract regions just contains text. The text extraction process includes detection, localization, segmentation and enhancement of the text from the given input image. In this paper we present a comparative study and performance evaluation of various text extraction techniques.
