Text-DIAE: A Self-Supervised Degradation Invariant Autoencoders for Text Recognition and Document Enhancement

Mohamed Ali Souibgui, Sanket Biswas, Andres Mafla +6

In this paper, we propose a Text-Degradation Invariant Auto Encoder (Text-DIAE), a self-supervised model designed to tackle two tasks, text recognition (handwritten or scene-text)…

Is An Image Worth Five Sentences? A New Look into Semantics for Image-Text Matching

Ali Furkan Biten, Andres Mafla, Lluis Gomez +1

The task of image-text matching aims to map representations from different modalities into a common joint visual-textual embedding. However, the most widely used datasets for this…

Multi-Modal Reasoning Graph for Scene-Text Based Fine-Grained Image Classification and Retrieval

Andres Mafla, Sounak Dey, Ali Furkan Biten +2

Scene text instances found in natural images carry explicit semantic information that can provide important cues to solve a wide array of computer vision problems. In this paper, w…

Scene Text Visual Question Answering

Ali Furkan Biten, Ruben Tito, Andres Mafla +5

Current visual question answering datasets do not consider the rich semantic information conveyed by text within an image. In this work, we present a new dataset, ST-VQA, that aims…
