The basic steps of the connected-component text extraction algorithm are given below, and diagrammed in Figure 10. The details are discussed in the following sections. 1. Convert the input image to YUV color space. The luminance(Y) value is used

The basic steps of the edge-based text extraction algorithm are given below 1. Create a Gaussian pyramid by convolving the input image with a Gaussian kernel and successively down-sample each direction by half. (Levels: 4) 2. Create directiona
