Abstract
Techniques for keypoint-based multi-label word segmentation and localization are described. A machine learning model identifies bounding regions of text within an image, and then generates multiple channel matrices representing predicted keypoints of the text within the bounding regions. The keypoints can be used to rectify the corresponding graphical content from the image including the text to improve the ability to perform optical character recognition and identify the text. Line and word segmentation and localization can be performed together.
