Detecting vertical text with craft

[Asad-Raza]

Hello

CRAFT is doing great in detection of horizontal text but it is not able to detect the text in vertical orientation properly. Can you provide guidance/suggestions on how to achieve detection of vertical text with CRAFT? Will training with images with vertical orientation suffice?

Thanks

Have you tried rotating the image 90 degrees and redo a detection again, and obtain the union of bounding boxes in both original and rotated orientations?

No , I have not tried rotating the image. I will try this. Thank you for the suggestion

I have the same trouble, I'm trying to solve this, but it's to difficult to me... I think convolutional neural networks, its the best option to solve this problem...training word by word.
