Abstract
Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed for text extraction from a receipt image. An example apparatus for clustering vertices, the apparatus comprises machine-readable memory, instructions, and processor circuitry to execute the machine-readable instructions to calculate a centroid corresponding to coordinates, calculate distances for respective ones of the coordinates relative to the centroid, calculate differences between the distances, determine whether ones of the differences satisfy a set of thresholds, in response to determining that ones of the differences satisfy the set of thresholds, calculate bearing angles for ones of the coordinates, determine an efficiency metric associated with respective ones of the bearing angles, sort each of the bearing angles based on the associated efficiency metric, and form coordinate clusters based on the sorted bearing angles.
