Function Documentation

§ loadOCRHMMClassifier()

Ptr<OCRHMMDecoder::ClassifierCallback> cv::text::loadOCRHMMClassifier ( const String filename,
int  classifier 
)
Python:
retval=cv.text.loadOCRHMMClassifier(filename, classifier)

Allow to implicitly load the default character classifier when creating an OCRHMMDecoder object.

Parameters
filenameThe XML or YAML file with the classifier model (e.g. OCRBeamSearch_CNN_model_data.xml.gz)
classifierCan be one of classifier_type enum values.

§ loadOCRHMMClassifierCNN()

Ptr<OCRHMMDecoder::ClassifierCallback> cv::text::loadOCRHMMClassifierCNN ( const String filename)
Python:
retval=cv.text.loadOCRHMMClassifierCNN(filename)

Allow to implicitly load the default character classifier when creating an OCRHMMDecoder object.

Parameters
filenameThe XML or YAML file with the classifier model (e.g. OCRBeamSearch_CNN_model_data.xml.gz)

The CNN default classifier is based in the scene text recognition method proposed by Adam Coates & Andrew NG in [Coates11a]. The character classifier consists in a Single Layer Convolutional Neural Network and a linear classifier. It is applied to the input image in a sliding window fashion, providing a set of recognitions at each window location.

Deprecated:
use loadOCRHMMClassifier instead

§ loadOCRHMMClassifierNM()

Ptr<OCRHMMDecoder::ClassifierCallback> cv::text::loadOCRHMMClassifierNM ( const String filename)
Python:
retval=cv.text.loadOCRHMMClassifierNM(filename)

Allow to implicitly load the default character classifier when creating an OCRHMMDecoder object.

Parameters
filenameThe XML or YAML file with the classifier model (e.g. OCRHMM_knn_model_data.xml)

The KNN default classifier is based in the scene text recognition method proposed by Lukás Neumann & Jiri Matas in [Neumann11b]. Basically, the region (contour) in the input image is normalized to a fixed size, while retaining the centroid and aspect ratio, in order to extract a feature vector based on gradient orientations along the chain-code of its perimeter. Then, the region is classified using a KNN model trained with synthetic data of rendered characters with different standard font types.

Deprecated:
loadOCRHMMClassifier instead
