Scene-text spotting is a task that predicts a text area on natural scene images and recognizes its text characters simultaneously. It has attracted much attention in recent years due to its wide applications. Existing research has mainly focused on improving text region detection, not text recognition. Thus, while detection accuracy is improved, the end-to-end accuracy is insufficient. Texts in natural scene images tend to not be a random string of characters but a meaningful string of characters, a word. Therefore, we propose adversarial learning of semantic representations for scene text spotting (A3S) to improve end-to-end accuracy, including text recognition. A3S simultaneously predicts semantic features in the detected text area instead of only performing text recognition based on existing visual features. Experimental results on publicly available datasets show that the proposed method achieves better accuracy than other methods.
