Removing black background/black stray straight lines from an image in python

I am trying read text from this image using Python with OpenCV that I have attached. However, black background in corners if this pic is messing with the text output and is giving wrong text.

I tried to used Adaptive Gaussian Thresholding in OpenCV using code:

import cv2 as cv
import numpy as np
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
img=cv.imread(file_path,0)

img = cv.medianBlur(img,5)
ret,th1 = cv.threshold(img,127,255,cv.THRESH_BINARY)

th2 =cv.adaptiveThreshold(img,255,cv.ADAPTIVE_THRESH_MEAN_C,\
        cv.THRESH_BINARY,11,2)

**th3 = cv.adaptiveThreshold(img,255,cv.ADAPTIVE_THRESH_GAUSSIAN_C,\
        cv.THRESH_BINARY,11,2)**

titles = ['Original Image', 'Global Thresholding (v = 127)',
        'Adaptive Mean Thresholding', 'Adaptive Gaussian Thresholding']

images = [img, th1, th2, th3]

for i in range(4):
    plt.subplot(2,2,i+1),plt.imshow(images[i],'gray')
    plt.title(titles[i])
    plt.xticks([]),plt.yticks([])

plt.show()

The output of this code is also attached as AGT_result.

Kindly assist me to extract the words only. Thank you in advance.

The number of nodes and edges I calculated manually and by a method provided by networkx library dont match

I am trying to analyse a graph using networkx library in Python. I have implemented a function that returns the nodes and edges of that graph. After that I counted the number of nodes and edges by implementing the len() function for nodes and edges, which gave me 17 for both nodes and edges. However, when I used the method graph.number_of_nodes() of networkx library it gave me 53. My code: import pandas as pd import networkx as nx import matplotlib.pyplot as plt header_list = ["a","b","w"] E =pd.read_csv("aves-barn-swallow-contact-network.edges",sep=" ",header= None,names=header_list) # print(E.head()) # prints first few rows of the csv file G = nx.from_pandas_edgelist(E,"a","b",["w"]) nx.draw(G) plt.show() class GraphAnalyse: #finding nodes and edges def nodeEdge(self,Graph): nodes = Graph.nodes() edges = Graph.edges() ...
