从图像中提取多个背景的文本

Question

我有多张背景不同的图像，

我需要忽略背景，并从我的图像中提取数字。例如：

测试后，我得到这个结果：

由于背景色，很难提取文本。。

我正在使用此代码：

image = cv2.imread('AA.png')

gray = cv2.cvtColor(image, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
thresh = cv2.threshold(gray, 165, 255, cv2.THRESH_BINARY_INV + cv2.THRESH_OTSU)[1]



# Invert image and perform morphological operations
inverted = 255 - thresh
kernel = cv2.getStructuringElement(cv2.MORPH_RECT, (15,3))
close = cv2.morphologyEx(inverted, cv2.MORPH_CLOSE, kernel, iterations=1)

# Find contours and filter using aspect ratio and area
cnts = cv2.findContours(close, cv2.RETR_EXTERNAL, cv2.CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE)
cnts = cnts[0] if len(cnts) == 2 else cnts[1]
for c in cnts:
    area = cv2.contourArea(c)
    peri = cv2.arcLength(c, True)
    approx = cv2.approxPolyDP(c, 0.01 * peri, True)
    x,y,w,h = cv2.boundingRect(approx)
    aspect_ratio = w / float(h)
    if (aspect_ratio >= 2.5 or area < 75):
        cv2.drawContours(thresh, [c], -1, (255,255,255), -1)

# Blur and perform text extraction
thresh = cv2.GaussianBlur(thresh, (3,3), 0)
data = pytesseract.image_to_string(thresh, lang='eng',config='tessedit_char_whitelist=0123456789 --psm 6')
print(data)


cv2.imshow('close', close)
cv2.imshow('thresh', thresh)
cv2.waitKey()

即使背景颜色发生变化，我如何也能准确地从该图像中提取数字？

您的阈值是您的问题。这是在执行OCR之前，我将如何在Python / OpenCV中处理图像。

我只是将阈值设为165，以使字母为白色，背景为黑色。然后在区域上过滤轮廓以去除较小的多余白色区域。然后反转结果，以便在白色背景上有黑色字母。

输入：

import cv2
import numpy as np

# load image as HSV and select saturation
img = cv2.imread("numbers.png")
hh, ww, cc = img.shape

# convert to gray
gray = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)

# threshold the grayscale image
ret, thresh = cv2.threshold(gray,165,255,0)

# create black image to hold results
results = np.zeros((hh,ww))

# find contours
cntrs = cv2.findContours(thresh, cv2.RETR_EXTERNAL, cv2.CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE)
cntrs = cntrs[0] if len(cntrs) == 2 else cntrs[1]

# Contour filtering and copy contour interior to new black image.
for c in cntrs:
    area = cv2.contourArea(c)
    if area > 1000:
        x,y,w,h = cv2.boundingRect(c)
        results[y:y+h,x:x+w] = thresh[y:y+h,x:x+w]

# invert the results image so that have black letters on white background
results = (255 - results)

# write results to disk
cv2.imwrite("numbers_extracted.png", results)

cv2.imshow("THRESH", thresh)
cv2.imshow("RESULTS", results)
cv2.waitKey(0)
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

轮廓过滤之前的阈值图像：

轮廓过滤和反转后的结果：

P.S。 cv2.inRange（）可以替代cv2.threshold。

当然，此解决方案可能仅限于该一张图像，因为其他图像可能需要不同的阈值和面积限制值。
