An Adaptive Deep Learning Framework for Shipping Container Code Localization and Recognition

TLDR
An adaptive deep learning framework for shipping container code localization and recognition and it is demonstrated that the proposed framework achieved better localization performance and obtained 93.33% recognition accuracy.
Abstract
Shipping containers play an important role in global transportation. As container codes are the unique identifiers for shipping containers, recognizing these codes is an essential step to manage the containers and logistics. The conventional code localization methods can easily be interfered by varied noises and cannot identify the best regions for code recognition. In this article, we propose an adaptive deep learning framework for shipping container code localization and recognition. In the framework, the noisy text regions will be removed by an adaptive score aggregation (ASA) algorithm. The code region boundaries are identified by the average-to-maximum suppression range (AMSR) algorithm. Thus, the predicted locations can be adjusted within this range to fit the code recognition model to achieve higher accuracy. The experimental results on the comparative study with the state-of-the-art models, including EAST, PSENet, GCRNN, and MaskTextSpotter, demonstrated that the proposed framework achieved better localization performance and obtained 93.33% recognition accuracy. The processing speed reaches 1.13 frames/s, which is sufficient to meet the operational requirements. Thus, the proposed solution will facilitate the digital transformation of shipping container management and logistics at ports.
