Abstract: |
In this paper, we present a new
technique of space symbol detection in the task of monospaced
text recognition for credit cardholder name as an example. In the considered
case, standard methods fail or have low quality because of background
complexity and variability of symbol colors. Suggested method is based on the
usage of two conjoined symbol images as an input for artificial neural
network. This provides background visual context for the recognizer, which
helps it to distinguish between symbols and spaces. |
