A survey from the Chinese Academy of Sciences introduces the first systematic review of visual text processing, establishing a framework to categorize tasks and analyze how text-specific characteristics are leveraged for enhancement, restoration, and manipulation of visual text.
Key insights
- Text within images possesses unique characteristics that can be explicitly modeled and leveraged to improve processing results, differentiating it from general image processing.
- Explicit integration of text features like structure, stroke, semantics, and style is crucial for achieving high-quality outcomes in tasks like editing, generation, and super-resolution.
- Generative models, especially diffusion models, have significantly advanced capabilities for sophisticated text manipulation, enabling tasks previously difficult to achieve.
