Line over text in Rekognition

Question

Cheers!
I am using Rekognition to detect text in a picture. At one point I have to detect whether text has a line over it or not. By line, I mean whether text is crossed out (like in supermarket catalogues when you have an original price crossed out and the discounted price not crossed out). Is something like that possible with Rekognition? Thanks!

Answer

This is not something that can be done in Rekognition.

You would like need to build your own vision recognition model that is trained to identify 'crossed-out numbers'. This could be done using Amazon SageMaker and LOTS of sample images with numbers crossed-out and not crossed-out. Using SageMaker isn't as simple as using Amazon Rekognition.
