Can I adapt the aster for textline recognition?

[pvlinh143bk]

Hi bgshih,
I have just came into your aster framework. I'm wondering that it is possible to adapt the framework for textline. If it is possible, what I need to do for adapting.
Could you help me explain the problem?
Thank you very much!

Hi @pvlinh143bk, you could use a text detector, e.g. EAST or CRAFT to detect separate words in your image, collect the resulting images in the list, resize them to the required size and feed them into ASTER. I doubt it would work with the whole image but have you tried that? What was the outcome?
