问题
I am trying to calculate the skew of text in an image so I can correct it for the best OCR results.
Currently this is the function I am using:
double compute_skew(Mat &img)
{
// Binarize
cv::threshold(img, img, 225, 255, cv::THRESH_BINARY);
// Invert colors
cv::bitwise_not(img, img);
cv::Mat element = cv::getStructuringElement(cv::MORPH_RECT, cv::Size(5, 3));
cv::erode(img, img, element);
std::vector<cv::Point> points;
cv::Mat_<uchar>::iterator it = img.begin<uchar>();
cv::Mat_<uchar>::iterator end = img.end<uchar>();
for (; it != end; ++it)
if (*it)
points.push_back(it.pos());
cv::RotatedRect box = cv::minAreaRect(cv::Mat(points));
double angle = box.angle;
if (angle < -45.)
angle += 90.;
cv::Point2f vertices[4];
box.points(vertices);
for(int i = 0; i < 4; ++i)
cv::line(img, vertices[i], vertices[(i + 1) % 4], cv::Scalar(255, 0, 0), 1, CV_AA);
return angle;
}
When I look at then angle in debug I get 0.000000
However when I give it this image I get proper results of a skew of about 16 degrees:
How can I properly detect the skew in the first image?
回答1:
there are a few other ways to get the skew degree, 1) by hough transform 2) by horizontal projection profile. rotate the image in different angle bins and calculate horizontal projection. the angle with the greatest horizontal histogram value is the deskewed angle.
i have provided below implementation of 1). i believe this to be superior to the boxing method you are using because it requires that you completely clean the image of any noise,which just isnt possible in most of the time.
you should know that the method doesnt work well if there's too much noise. you can reduce noise in different ways depending on what type of "line" you want to treat as the most dominant in the image. i have provided two methods for this. be sure to play with parameters and threshold etc.

回答2:
the approach you posted has its own "ideal binarization" assumption. the threshold value directly affects the process. utilize otsu threshold, or think about DFT for a generic solution.
otsu trial:
int main()
{
Mat input = imread("your text");
cvtColor(input, input, CV_BGR2GRAY);
Mat img;
cv::threshold(input, img, 100, 255, cv::THRESH_OTSU);
cv::bitwise_not(img, img);
imshow("img ", img);
waitKey(0);
vector<Point> points;
findNonZero(img, points);
cv::RotatedRect box = cv::minAreaRect(points);
double angle = box.angle;
if (angle < -45.)
angle += 90.;
cv::Point2f vertices[4];
box.points(vertices);
for(int i = 0; i < 4; ++i)
cv::line(img, vertices[i], vertices[(i + 1) % 4], cv::Scalar(255, 0, 0));
imshow("img ", img);
waitKey(0);
return 0;
}
