摘要
A robust TV logo detection method based on the modified single shot multibox detector (SSD) is presented. Unlike most other existing methods which can only detect the TV logo from video frames, the proposed method can also detect the TV logo from photo pictures taken by smartphones or other smart terminals. Firstly, using a simple and effective way of collecting and labelling TV logo, a large-scale TV logo dataset used to train the detection model is built. Then, parameters and loss function of SSD are modified to make it more suitable for the task of TV logo detection. Moreover, a soft-NMS algorithm is introduced to remove the redundant overlapping boxes and obtain the final output box. And also an approach for hard example mining is designed to improve the detection accuracy. Finally, extensive comparison experiments are carried out which take into consideration different image resolutions, logo positions and environmental factors existing in real-world applications. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieve superior performances in robustness compared to other state-of-the-art methods.
