Thankyou sir for ur reply..

But gone through those papers already i can able to understang only
the THEROTICAL Concepts..

I dont know to apply PRACTICALLY

eg.. After detecting text in an image put bounding boxes but my big
doubt is how to put bounding boxes around the text?
how to write MATLAB code for it.. i dont have any idea sir...

Wat i have done through is
1.If it is color image convert to grayscale image
2.By thresholding i convert to binary image..
3.Then applying edge eg..sobel,roberts etc i can highlight the text
area..

tats it..

but how to extract only the text pixels in an image..

kindly help me sirr.
