Padding sensitive batch construction for text recognition

Abstract

Techniques for constructing padding-sensitive batches for text recognition are provided. In one technique, a first bounding box from a list of bounding boxes is added or included into a batch of zero or more bounding boxes. Each bounding box in the list of bounding boxes surrounds different detected text in a digital image. A second bounding box is identified from the list. The second bounding box is wider than the first bounding box. A difference between (1) a width of the second bounding box and (2) a particular width is determined. The particular width is based on a width of a bounding box in the batch. Based on the difference and a threshold value, it is determined whether to include the second bounding box in the batch. The batch is then input into a test recognition model.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
