Abstract
Text region detection techniques and systems for digital images using image tag filtering are described. These techniques and systems support numerous advantages over conventional techniques through use of image tags to filter text region candidates. A computing device, for instance, may first generate text region candidates through use of a variety of different techniques, such as text line detection. The computing device then assigns image tags to the text region candidates. The assigned image tags are then used by the computing device to filter the text region candidates based on whether image tags assigned to respective candidates are indicative of text.
