Faster R-CNN uses a region proposal network which consists of a single scale convolution filter and fully connected networks to localize detected regions. However, using a single scale filter is not enough to detect full regions of characters. In this letter, we propose a simple but effective way, i.e., utilizing variously sized convolution filters, to accurately detect Chinese characters of multiple scales in documents. We experimentally verified that our method improved IoU by 4% and detection rate by 3% than the previous single scale Faster R-CNN method.
