Q1: The prediction results of trained model and inference model are inconsistent?
**A**: Most of the problems are caused by the inconsistency of the pre-processing and post-processing parameters during the prediction of the trained model and the pre-processing and post-processing parameters during the prediction of the inference model. Taking the model trained by the det_mv3_db.yml configuration file as an example, the solution to the problem of inconsistent prediction results between the training model and the inference model is as follows:

- Check whether the [trained model preprocessing](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/c1ed243fb68d5d466258243092e56cbae32e2c14/configs/det/det_mv3_db.yml#L116) is consistent with the prediction [preprocessing function of the inference model](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/c1ed243fb68d5d466258243092e56cbae32e2c14/tools/infer/predict_det.py#L42). When the algorithm is evaluated, the input image size will affect the accuracy. In order to be consistent with the paper, the image is resized to [736, 1280] in the training icdar15 configuration file, but there is only a set of default parameters when the inference model predicts, which will be considered To predict the speed problem, the longest side of the image is limited to 960 for resize by default.
