Abstract
A method, computer system, and a computer program product for text detection is provided. The present invention may include training a text detection model. The present invention may include performing text detection on an inputted image using the trained text detection model. The present invention may include determining whether at least one of a plurality of bounding boxes generated using the inputted image has an aspect ratio above a threshold. The present invention may include based upon determining that at least one of the plurality of bounding boxes generated using the inputted image has the aspect ratio above the threshold, upscaling any text within the at least one bounding box and performing text detection on a new image using the trained text detection model. The present invention may include outputting an output image.
