在查找轮廓之前，您需要先模糊然后应用阈值.您需要执行此操作，因为如果直接在灰度图像上找到轮廓，则会有细小颗粒被拾取为轮廓.这是一个简单的过程:

• 加载图像，灰度，高斯模糊，大津的阈值
• 找到轮廓并使用

  I am trying to extract digits from the below image using simple OpenCV contours approach, but I am getting overlapping bounding boxes over contours

  cv2.RETR_EXTERNAL should return only outer contours in the hierarchy but it’s not working as can be seen from the below output

  Code:

  from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
  import cv2
  
  img = cv2.imread('image.png', 0)
  
  _, contours, _ = cv2.findContours(img, cv2.RETR_EXTERNAL, cv2.CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE)
  
  imgRGB = cv2.cvtColor(img.copy(), cv2.COLOR_GRAY2RGB)
  
  for c in contours:
      x,y,w,h = cv2.boundingRect(c)
      cv2.rectangle(imgRGB, (x, y), (x+w, y+h), (0,255,0), 2)
  
  fig = plt.figure()
  ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
  ax.imshow(imgRGB, cmap='gray')
  

  Requirements:

  opencv-python==3.4.5.20
  matplotlib==3.1.2
  

  You need to blur then apply a threshold before finding contours. You need to do this because if you find contours directly on the grayscale image, there are tiny particles which are picked up as contours. Here's a simple process:

  • Load image, grayscale, Gaussian blur, Otsu's threshold
  • Find contours and sort using imutils.contours.sort_contours() with the left-to-right parameter
  • Obtain bounding box then extract ROI using Numpy slicing

  Here's the detected bounding boxes highlighted in green

  Extracted/saved ROIs

  Code

  import cv2
  from imutils import contours
  
  image = cv2.imread('1.png')
  original = image.copy()
  gray = cv2.cvtColor(image,cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
  blur = cv2.GaussianBlur(gray, (3,3), 0)
  thresh = cv2.threshold(gray, 0, 255, cv2.THRESH_BINARY + cv2.THRESH_OTSU)[1]
  
  cnts = cv2.findContours(thresh, cv2.RETR_EXTERNAL, cv2.CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE)
  cnts = cnts[0] if len(cnts) == 2 else cnts[1]
  (cnts, _) = contours.sort_contours(cnts, method="left-to-right")
  num = 0
  for c in cnts:
      x,y,w,h = cv2.boundingRect(c)
      cv2.rectangle(image, (x, y), (x + w, y + h), (36,255,12), 1)
      ROI = original[y:y+h, x:x+w]
      cv2.imwrite('ROI_{}.png'.format(num), ROI)
      num += 1
  
  cv2.imshow('image', image)
  cv2.waitKey()
