Area of Science:

Computer Vision
Artificial Intelligence
Image Processing

Background:

Detecting arbitrary-shape text in natural scenes presents significant challenges.
Existing methods often lack real-time capabilities or practical applicability.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop an effective and real-time detector for arbitrary-shape text.
To improve upon current limitations in arbitrary-shape text detection.

Main Methods:

A YOLOv6-based architecture was adapted for text detection.
Two additional branches were integrated into the YOLOv6 neck.
The pixel aggregation (PA) algorithm was utilized for the detection head.

Main Results:

The proposed method achieved high detection accuracy and real-time performance.
On Total-Text (640x640), an F-measure of 84.1% at 291.8 FPS was recorded.
On ICDAR2015 (896x896), an F-measure of 81.5% at 199.6 FPS was achieved.

Conclusions:

The YOLOv6-based detector effectively addresses arbitrary-shape text detection challenges.
The method demonstrates superior performance in both accuracy and speed compared to existing approaches.
