Industrial session of the natural scene in the text recognition technology has a great demand. The traditional optical character recognition technology (OCR) requires the text neat layout and neatness and background clean, and industrial production often fail to meet such standards. In this paper, a new text recognition algorithm based on deep learning is proposed for the existing problems of OCR technology. In this paper, a new method based on convolution neural network (Faster RCNN) is proposed to improve the correctness of text recognition. Compared with the conventional detection method, the correct rate of recognition based on Faster RCNN model can reach 90.4%, and the correctness rate is 88.9%. Experiments show that the recognition method in this paper is effective.
