Abstract: In some examples, a system for detecting text in an image includes a memory device to store a text detection model trained using images of up-scaled text, and a processor configured to perform text detection on an image to generate original bounding boxes that identify potential text in the image. The processor is also configured to generate a secondary image that includes up-scaled portions of the image associated with bounding boxes below a threshold size, and perform text detection on the secondary image to generate secondary bounding boxes that identify potential text in the secondary image. The processor is also configured to compare the original bounding boxes with the secondary bounding boxes to identify original bounding boxes that are false positives, and generate an image file that includes the original bounding boxes, wherein those original bounding boxes that are identified as false positives are removed.

Abstract: A method, computer system, and a computer program product for text detection is provided. The present invention may include training a text detection model. The present invention may include performing text detection on an inputted image using the trained text detection model. The present invention may include determining whether at least one of a plurality of bounding boxes generated using the inputted image has an aspect ratio above a threshold. The present invention may include based upon determining that at least one of the plurality of bounding boxes generated using the inputted image has the aspect ratio above the threshold, upscaling any text within the at least one bounding box and performing text detection on a new image using the trained text detection model. The present invention may include outputting an output image.
