These methods typically follow the tracking-by-match paradigm and develop sophisticated pipelines. In this paper, rooted in Transformer sequence modeling, we propose a simple, but effective end-to-end video text DEtection, Tracking, and Recognition framework (TransDETR). TransDETR mainly includes two advantages: 1) Different from the explicit match paradigm in the adjacent frame, TransDETR tracks and recognizes each text implicitly by the different query termed text query over long-range temporal sequence (more than 7 frames). 2) TransDETR is the first end-to-end trainable video text spotting framework, which simultaneously addresses the three sub-tasks (e.g., text detection, tracking, recognition). Extensive experiments in four video text datasets (i.e.,ICDAR2013 Video, ICDAR2015 Video, Minetto, and YouTube Video Text) are conducted to demonstrate that TransDETR achieves state-of-the-art performance with up to around 8.0% improvements on video text spotting tasks.
