Digital cameras and mobile phones with built-in cameras are today very popular because of their ease of use. It is important for image processors to be able identify a signboard in an image and extract the character sequence. Techniques for extracting a character sequence from a signboard can combined with various other systems to realize a diverse range of services. In this paper, we propose a method for extracting a character sequence from an electric signboard in night scene images.
