Text extraction from invariant complex image
Great progress has been made in Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology. Most current OCRs, however, can only read characters printed on sheets of paper according to some rigid format restrictions. For that, the detection and extraction of text regions in an image are well known problems in C...

Great progress has been made in Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology. Most current OCRs, however, can only read characters printed on sheets of paper according to some rigid format restrictions.

The algorithms are implemented and evaluated by using a set of images of natural scenes that vary along its’ size, scale and orientation.
