Video text tracking for dense and small text based on pp-yoloe-r and sort algorithm
No confident code implementation found for this paper.
Abstract
Although end-to-end video text spotting methods based on Transformer can model long-range dependencies and simplify the train process, it will lead to large computation cost with the increase of the frame size in the input video. Therefore, considering the resolution of ICDAR 2023 DSText is 1080 * 1920 and slicing the video frame into several areas will destroy the spatial correlation of text, we divided the small and dense text spotting into two tasks, text detection and tracking. For text detection, we adopt the PP-YOLOE-R which is proven effective in small object detection as our detection model. For text detection, we use the sort algorithm for high inference speed. Experiments on DSText dataset demonstrate that our method is competitive on small and dense text spotting.
