## 1. Introduction

Paper:
> [SEED: Semantics Enhanced Encoder-Decoder Framework for Scene Text Recognition](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2005.10977.pdf)

Using MJSynth and SynthText two text recognition datasets for training, and evaluating on IIIT, SVT, IC03, IC13, IC15, SVTP, CUTE datasets, the algorithm reproduction effect is as follows:

|Model|Backbone|ACC|config|Download link|
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
|SEED|Aster_Resnet| 85.2% | [configs/rec/rec_resnet_stn_bilstm_att.yml](../../configs/rec/rec_resnet_stn_bilstm_att.yml) | [训练模型](https://paddleocr.bj.bcebos.com/dygraph_v2.1/rec/rec_resnet_stn_bilstm_att.tar) |

Please refer to [Text Recognition Tutorial](./recognition_en.md). PaddleOCR modularizes the code, and training different recognition models only requires **changing the configuration file**.

Training:

The SEED model needs to additionally load the [language model](https://dl.fbaipublicfiles.com/fasttext/vectors-crawl/cc.en.300.bin.gz) trained by FastText, and install the fasttext dependencies:

```
python3 -m pip install fasttext==0.9.1
```

Specifically, after the data preparation is completed, the training can be started. The training command is as follows:

```
#Single GPU training (long training period, not recommended)
python3 tools/train.py -c configs/rec/rec_resnet_stn_bilstm_att.yml

#Multi GPU training, specify the gpu number through the --gpus parameter
python3 -m paddle.distributed.launch --gpus '0,1,2,3'  tools/train.py -c rec_resnet_stn_bilstm_att.yml
```

Evaluation:

```
# GPU evaluation
python3 -m paddle.distributed.launch --gpus '0' tools/eval.py -c configs/rec/rec_resnet_stn_bilstm_att.yml -o Global.pretrained_model={path/to/weights}/best_accuracy
```

Prediction:

```
# The configuration file used for prediction must match the training
python3 tools/infer_rec.py -c configs/rec/rec_resnet_stn_bilstm_att.yml -o Global.pretrained_model={path/to/weights}/best_accuracy Global.infer_img=doc/imgs_words/en/word_1.png
```

First, the model saved during the SEED text recognition training process is converted into an inference model. ( [Model download link](https://paddleocr.bj.bcebos.com/dygraph_v2.1/rec/rec_resnet_stn_bilstm_att.tar) ), you can use the following command to convert:

```
python3 tools/export_model.py -c configs/rec/rec_resnet_stn_bilstm_att.yml -o Global.pretrained_model={path/to/weights}/best_accuracy Global.save_inference_dir=seed_infer
```

For SEED text recognition model inference, the following commands can be executed:

```
python3 tools/infer/predict_rec.py --rec_model_dir=seed_infer --image_dir=doc/imgs_words_en/word_10.png --rec_algorithm="SEED" --rec_char_dict_path=ppocr/utils/EN_symbol_dict.txt --rec_image_shape="3,64,256" --use_space_char=False
```
