All labels have a white background but their size might differ (as the width of the book varies). So far, I found some related papers (e.g., Combining Image and Text Features: A Hybrid Approach to Mobile Book Spine Recognition). I've also tried various combinations of preprocessing steps and then line / contour detection. While I was able to detect multiple books in some pictures, I have the feeling that because of the fine-tuning of the parameters of the preprocessing operations I "overfitted" it and it might not work with different light settings etc. Currently, I'm experimenting with an approach that is similar to square detection. Thus, I would like to ask two questions:
Thanks and best regards, Christoph |
