Abstract

A system and method for text line detection are described Examples include detection of symbols in an image received from an image-capturing device. In examples, for each of at least some of the symbols, neighboring symbols within a local region a given distance from the symbol are analyzed in order to determine a direction for a line in the local region. In examples, based on the determined directions for the lines, text lines in the image are identified.
