Text segmentation in natural scenes using Toggle-Mapping
We offer, in this paper, a new method to segment text in natural scenes. This method is based on the use of a morphological operator: the Toggle Mapping. The efficiency of the method is illustrated and the method is compared, according to various criteria, with common methods issued from the state of the art. This comparison shows that our method gives better results and is faster than the state of the art methods. Our method reduces also the number of segmented regions. This can lead to time saving in a complete scheme (executing time of multiple processing steps usually depends on the number of regions) and proves that our algorithm is more relevant.
