Abstract:
System and method for text localization in images are disclosed. In an embodiment, a line and graphic eliminated image is received. Further, horizontal projection is performed on rows of the image to obtain a first flag vector, the flag vector indicates whether there is text in each row. Furthermore, a number of run-lengths of consecutive 1's and 0's is computed in the first flag vector. Moreover, text lines is extracted in the image based on the computed number of run-lengths of consecutive 1's and 0's in the first flag vector. Also, vertical projection is performed on the text lines to obtain a second flag vector for the text lines. Further, a number of run-lengths of consecutive 1's and 0's is computed in the second flag vectors. Furthermore, text is localized in the image based on the computed number of run-lengths of consecutive 1's and 0's in the second flag vectors.

Claim (Index 11):
The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:\n identifying a region of interest in the line and graphic eliminated image; performing expansion of the region of interest in at least one of vertical and horizontal directions, wherein the region of interest expansion is comprised of segmented words in one of the plurality of text lines.
