I am newbie to OpenCV. I'm trying to find the contours of the captcha image. It does not work only when my captcha image contains the dotted text.
I have done following code for that:
import numpy as np
import cv2 as cv
import imgaug.augmenters as iaa
im = cv.imread('dataset/1.jpg')
imgray = cv.cvtColor(im, cv.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
imgray = cv.threshold(imgray, 127, 255, 0)[1]
dst = cv.Canny(imgray,0,150)
blured = cv.blur(dst,(5,5),0)
img_thresh = cv.adaptiveThreshold(blured,255,cv.ADAPTIVE_THRESH_GAUSSIAN_C, cv.THRESH_BINARY_INV, 11, 2)
kernel = cv.getStructuringElement(cv.MORPH_RECT, (3,3))
threshed = cv.morphologyEx(img_thresh,cv.MORPH_CLOSE,kernel)
contours, hierarchy = cv.findContours(dst, cv.RETR_TREE, cv.CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE)
print(len(contours))
# cv.drawContours(im, contours, -1, (0, 255, 0), 3)
cv.imshow("img_thresh",img_thresh)
cv.imshow("dst",dst)
cv.imshow("threshed",threshed)
cv.waitKey(0)
cv.destroyAllWindows()
Can anyone help in this? Is there any way to find contours in this image?
