## 4. Paddle-Lite Model
## 4. Paddle-Lite Model
Paddle Lite is an updated version of Paddle-Mobile, an open-open source deep learning framework designed to make it easy to perform inference on mobile, embeded, and IoT devices. It can further optimize the inference model and generate `nb model` used for edge devices. It's suggested to optimize the quantization model using Paddle-Lite because `INT8` format is used for the model storage and inference.
This chapter lists OCR nb models with PP-OCRv2 or earlier versions. You can access to the latest nb models from the above tables.

#### 2.1.3 Layout Analysis
Layout analysis refers to the division of 5 types of areas of the document, including text, title, list, picture and table. For the first three types of regions, directly use the OCR model to complete the text detection and recognition of the corresponding regions, and save the results in txt. For the table area, after the table structuring process, the table picture is converted into an Excel file of the same table style. The picture area will be individually cropped into an image.
To use the layout analysis function of PaddleOCR, you need to specify `--type=structure`
| bbox | The coordinates of the image area in the original image, respectively [left upper x, left upper y, right bottom x, right bottom y] |
| res | OCR or table recognition result of image area。<br> Table: HTML string of the table; <br> OCR: A tuple containing the detection coordinates and recognition results of each single line of text |
