Description

The KAIST scene text dataset comprises 3000 images captured in different environments, including outdoors and indoors scenes under different lighting conditions (clear day, night, strong artificial lights, etc). Images were captured either by the use of a high-resolution digital camera or a low-resolution mobile phone camera. All images have been resized to 640x480.

The KAIST scene text database is categorized according to the language of the scene text captured: Korean, English (Number), and Mixed (Korean + English + Number). The scene text in the images is representative of common text in Korean streets or shops.
