Moreover, this paper analyzes the architecture design of those methods to reveal the influence of pipeline choices on the detection quality. The setup of experimental studies are straight-forward: we collect and manually annotate test data, we reimplement the pretrained models of the state-of-the-art methods, then we evaluate and analyze how well each method achieve in each of our collected datasets. We found that most of the state-of-the-art methods are competent at detecting textual information in unseen data, however, some are more readily used for real-world applications. Surprisingly, we also found that the choice of a post-processing algorithm correlates strongly with the performance of the corresponding method. We expect this paper would serve as a reference for researchers as well as application developers in the field. All collected data with ground truth annotation and their detected results is publicly available at our Github repository: https://github.com/chupibk/ HBlab-rlq19. date: 2019-10-27 date_type: completed official_url: http://openaccess.thecvf.com/content_ICCVW_2019/papers/RLQ/Nguyen_State-of-the-Art_in_Action_Unconstrained_Text_Detection_ICCVW_2019_paper.pdf contact_email: ngocdiep@vnu.edu.vn full_text_status: public pres_type: paper event_title: ICCV 2019 - The international Workshop and Challenge on Real-world Recognition from Low-quality images and videos event_location: Seoul, Republic of Korea event_dates: October 27, 2019 event_type: workshop refereed: TRUE citation: Nguyen, Diep Thi Ngoc (2019) State-of-the-Art in Action: Unconstrained Text Detection.
