Sub-sampling Approach for Unconstrained Arabic Scene Text Analysis by Implicit Segmentation based Deep Learning Classifier
The text extraction from the natural scene image is still a cumbersome task to perform. This paper presents a novel contribution and suggests the solution for cursive scene text analysis notably recognition of Arabic scene text appeared in the unconstrained environment. The hierarchical sub-sampling technique is adapted to investigate the potential through sub-sampling the window size of the given scene text sample. The deep learning architecture is presented by considering the complexity of the Arabic script. The conducted experiments present 96.81% accuracy at the character level. The comparison of the Arabic scene text with handwritten and printed data is outlined as well.
