The downloadable models provided by PaddleOCR include `inference model`, `trained model`, `pre-trained model` and `slim model`. The differences between the models are as follows:

|model type|model format|description|
|--- | --- | --- |
|inference model|inference.pdmodel、inference.pdiparams|Used for reasoning based on Python prediction engine，[detail](./inference_en.md)|
|trained model, pre-trained model|\*.pdparams、\*.pdopt、\*.states |The checkpoints model saved in the training process, which stores the parameters of the model, mostly used for model evaluation and continuous training.|
|slim model|\*.nb|Generally used for Lite deployment|

**Note:** The `trained model` is finetuned on the `pre-trained model` with real data and synthsized vertical text data, which achieved better performance in real scene. The `pre-trained model` is directly trained on the full amount of real data and synthsized data, which is more suitable for finetune on your own dataset.
