Scene text removal is a recent development in computer vision that replaces text patches in natural images with the appropriate background. Text removal is a difficult process leading to faulty areas of text containing text strokes with their hazy backgrounds. Text in the real world uses a variety of font kinds, some of which are difficult to localize due to their chaotic shapes, varied shading degrees, and orientation *** text erasing may include the subtasks of text detection as well as text inpainting. Both subtasks require a large amount of data to be successful;but, existing approaches were limited by insufficient real-world data for scene-text elimination. Eventhough the existing works produced considerable performance improvement in scene text removal, they often leave many text remains like text strokes, thus producinglow-quality visual outcomes. Therefore, this paper proposes an automatic text inpainting and video quality elevation model by using the Improved Convolutional Network-based ***, the video samples are collected from the diverse datasets and then converted into frames. Next, the frames are deblurred using an enhanced Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model that has three convolutional layers for accurately localizing the texts in frames. Subsequently, the texts are detected by utilizing the CLARA-based VGG-16 network. Afterward, the text strokes are removed using a convolutional Encoder and decoder network to eliminate the presence of text on complex backgrounds and textures. Here, the coordinates of text in the deblurred frames are used to crop out the text stroke regions. So, the texts are in-painted, and then, the text in-painted regions are pasted back to their original positions in the frames. Furthermore, the video quality is elevated with the help of the DenseNet-centric Enhancement network. The experimental outcomes demonstrate that the proposed model effectively removed scene texts and enhanced the video qu

As a pivotal enabler of intelligent transportation system(ITS), Internet of vehicles(Io V) has aroused extensive attention from academia and industry. The exponential growth of computation-intensive, latency-sensitive,and privacy-aware vehicular applications in Io V result in the transformation from cloud computing to edge computing,which enables tasks to be offloaded to edge nodes(ENs) closer to vehicles for efficient execution. In ITS environment,however, due to dynamic and stochastic computation offloading requests, it is challenging to efficiently orchestrate offloading decisions for application requirements. How to accomplish complex computation offloading of vehicles while ensuring data privacy remains challenging. In this paper, we propose an intelligent computation offloading with privacy protection scheme, named COPP. In particular, an Advanced Encryption Standard-based encryption method is utilized to implement privacy protection. Furthermore, an online offloading scheme is proposed to find optimal offloading policies. Finally, experimental results demonstrate that COPP significantly outperforms benchmark schemes in the performance of both delay and energy consumption.
