Niti Syal, Naresh Kumar Garg

With the advancement of the digital technology, the multimedia databases are increasing every day. The databases usually contain images and videos in addition to the textual information. Several papers have been reported in the literature and numerous algorithms are proposed for text localization in natural images and videos. All these algorithms are proposed considering the different properties of text that helps to distinguish the text regions from the other regions in the natural scenes. In this paper, review of text localization is given. It will help the beginner’s to start their work in the field of text localization.
