GT Text v1.2.6

GT Text Desciption:

n the research of algorithms that extract text from color images a set of files with the exact location of the text is needed to avoid inefficient and tedious visual checks of the results. This Ground Truth information saves enormous time and gives.

The goal of this project is to construct a software tool that allows the creation of complete pixel-level ground truth information of complex colour images. For that the software should support both the easy labeling of the pixels in any image that form a readable text as well as managing metadata and the ground truth structure overall. To construct the software we chose to work with Web images because of their variability, but the software should be generic and easily applicable to other domains. A parallel objective of the project is also to define a Ground Truth specification and corresponding file format to store the GT information. We mark thus the following objectives to be accomplished to complete the project. To define a Ground Truth Specification for the Segmentation of Complex Color Text Images I. Review the State of the Art on ground truthing methods II. Review the state of the art on Color Text Extraction and establish their evaluation needs III. Review a representative set of Web images and define the information necessary to be stored in the GT file IV. Define a structure for the GT file To implement a Software for building GT data that I. Allows the loading and visualization of images and the corresponding GT data II. Comprises tools for labelling images at the pixel level III. Comprises tools for editing GT metadata
