Scene Text Detection, Recognition and Translation.

Reading text in natural images has attracted increasing attention in the computer vision community due to its numerous practical applications in document analysis, scene understanding, robot navigation, and image retrieval. Although previous works have made significant progress in both text detection and text recognition, it is still challenging due to the large variance of text patterns and highly complicated background. The most common way in scene text reading is to divide it into text detection and text recognition, which are handled as two separate tasks. Deep learning based approaches become dominate in both parts. Text Detection: Text Detection is a technique where image will be given to the model and the textual region is detected by plotting a bounding box around it.
