This paper deals with techniques to detect abrupt scene transitions when random brightness variations (flicker) are present. This is normally the case when trying to restore or in...
Scene text recognition has gained significant attention from the computer vision community in recent years. Recognizing such text is a challenging problem, even more so than the ...
Perspective distortion always occurs while scanning thick, bound documents. This distortion mainly causes two sources of degradation for the scanned grayscale image ? i) shade alo...
—In this paper, we propose a method based on the Laplacian in the frequency domain for video text detection. Unlike many other approaches which assume that text is horizontallyor...
A robust method for plate segmentation in a License Plate Recognition (LPR) system is presented, designed to work in a wide range of acquisition conditions, including unrestricted ...
