Extraction of character regions is necessary in various fields such as automatic driving. In this paper, we propose a method for extracting character regions from scene images. The method identifies characters by a neural network using local contour density and corner pixel ratio. The experimental results show that the proposed method obtains sufficient accuracy for character region extraction.
