Abstract: Text detection is the method of locating areas in a picture wherever, text is present. Text detection and classification in natural pictures is very important for several computer vision applications like optical character recognition, distinguish between human and machine inputs and spam removal. Currently the challenge in text identifying is to detect the text in natural pictures due to many factors like, low-quality image, unclear words, typical font, image having a lot of color stroke than the background color, blurred pictures due to some natural problems like rain, sunny, snow, etc. The main aim of this work is to identify and classify the text in natural pictures. Here system detects the text and finds the connected regions, chainthem together in their relative position. Uses a text classification engine to filter chains with low classification confidence scores.
