Request: ability to return character bounding boxes from generator

Open notmatthancock opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

For over-segmentation style OCR approaches, it would be helpful to have character bounding boxes. Glancing at the source for computer_text_generator.py it seems feasible with the current implementation. Although, I'm not accounting for potential skews and other geometric transformations that might add considerable more difficulty.

The PR is outdated, but the feature was implemented just never merged: https://github.com/Belval/TextRecognitionDataGenerator/pull/144

I could try to fix and merge it.
