Title
A Quadrilateral Scene Text Detector with Two-stage Network Architecture
Abstract
•We propose a novel quadrilateral regression algorithm for generating quadrilateral proposals and text detections.•We introduce a dual-branch structure of a quadrilateral detection head and an additional rotated rectangle detection head to train the detection head at the second stage.•We design a novel weighted RoI pooling module with learned weight masks to pool the feature.•We propose an accelerated NMS algorithm for quadrilateral text proposals and detections.•We integrate the above four novel modules into the two-stage architecture of Faster R-CNN, and achieve state-of-the-art results on multiple public datasets.
