ICDAR 2023 Video Text Reading Competition for Dense and Small Text

Recently, video text detection, tracking, and recognition in natural scenes are becoming very popular in the computer vision community. However, most existing algorithms and benchmarks focus on common text cases (e.g., normal size, density) and single scenarios, while ignoring extreme video text challenges, i.e., dense and small text in various scenarios. In this competition report, we establish a video text reading benchmark, DSText, which focuses on dense and small text reading challenges in the video with various scenarios. Compared with the previous datasets, the proposed dataset mainly include three new challenges: 1) Dense video texts, a new challenge for video text spotter. 2) High-proportioned small texts. 3) Various new scenarios, e.g., Game, sports, etc. The proposed DSText includes 100 video clips from 12 open scenarios, supporting two tasks (i.e., video text tracking (Task 1) and end-to-end video text spotting (Task 2)). During the competition period (opened on 15th February 2023 and closed on 20th March 2023), a total of 24 teams participated in the three proposed tasks with around 30 valid submissions, respectively. In this article, we describe detailed statistical information of the dataset, tasks, evaluation protocols and the results summaries of the ICDAR 2023 on DSText competition. Moreover, we hope the benchmark will promise video text research in the community.
