Abstract

A method and system for analyzing text in an image. Classification and localization information is identified for the image at a word and character level. A detailed profile is generated that includes attributes of the words and characters identified in the image. One or more objects representing a predicted source of the text are identified in the image. In one embodiment, neural networks are employed to determine localization information and classification information associated with the identified object of interest (e.g., a text string, a character, or a text source).
