"## 1. 文本检测训练相关FAQ\n",
"\n",
"**1.1 PaddleOCR提供的文本检测算法包括哪些？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**：PaddleOCR中包含多种文本检测模型，包括基于回归的文本检测方法EAST、SAST，和基于分割的文本检测方法DB，PSENet。\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.2：请问PaddleOCR项目中的中文超轻量和通用模型用了哪些数据集？训练多少样本，gpu什么配置，跑了多少个epoch，大概跑了多久？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**：对于超轻量DB检测模型，训练数据包括开源数据集lsvt，rctw，CASIA，CCPD，MSRA，MLT，BornDigit，iflytek，SROIE和合成的数据集等，总数据量越10W，数据集分为5个部分，训练时采用随机采样策略，在4卡V100GPU上约训练500epoch，耗时3天。\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.3 文本检测训练标签是否需要具体文本标注，标签中的”###”是什么意思？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**：文本检测训练只需要文本区域的坐标即可，标注可以是四点或者十四点，按照左上，右上，右下，左下的顺序排列。PaddleOCR提供的标签文件中包含文本字段，对于文本区域文字不清晰会使用###代替。训练检测模型时，不会用到标签中的文本字段。\n",
" \n",
"**1.4 对于文本行较紧密的情况下训练的文本检测模型效果较差？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**：使用基于分割的方法，如DB，检测密集文本行时，最好收集一批数据进行训练，并且在训练时，并将生成二值图像的[shrink_ratio](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/ppocr/data/imaug/make_shrink_map.py?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container%2C%20div%5Bitemtype%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FSoftwareSourceCode%22%5D%20main%2C%20%5Bdata-pjax-container%5D#L37)参数调小一些。另外，在预测的时候，可以适当减小[unclip_ratio](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/configs/det/ch_ppocr_v2.0/ch_det_mv3_db_v2.0.yml?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container%2C%20div%5Bitemtype%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FSoftwareSourceCode%22%5D%20main%2C%20%5Bdata-pjax-container%5D#L59)参数，unclip_ratio参数值越大检测框就越大。\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.5 对于一些尺寸较大的文档类图片， DB在检测时会有较多的漏检，怎么避免这种漏检的问题呢？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**：首先，需要确定是模型没有训练好的问题还是预测时处理的问题。如果是模型没有训练好，建议多加一些数据进行训练，或者在训练的时候多加一些数据增强。\n",
"如果是预测图像过大的问题，可以增大预测时输入的最长边设置参数[det_limit_side_len](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/tools/infer/utility.py?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container%2C%20div%5Bitemtype%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FSoftwareSourceCode%22%5D%20main%2C%20%5Bdata-pjax-container%5D#L47)，默认为960。\n",
"其次，可以通过可视化后处理的分割图观察漏检的文字是否有分割结果，如果没有分割结果，说明是模型没有训练好。如果有完整的分割区域，说明是预测后处理的问题，建议调整[DB后处理参数](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/tools/infer/utility.py?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container%2C%20div%5Bitemtype%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FSoftwareSourceCode%22%5D%20main%2C%20%5Bdata-pjax-container%5D#L51-L53)。\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.6 DB模型弯曲文本（如略微形变的文档图像）漏检问题?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: DB后处理中计算文本框平均得分时，是求rectangle区域的平均分数，容易造成弯曲文本漏检，已新增求polygon区域的平均分数，会更准确，但速度有所降低，可按需选择，在相关pr中可查看[可视化对比效果](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/pull/2604)。该功能通过参数 [det_db_score_mode](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/release/2.1/tools/infer/utility.py#L51)进行选择，参数值可选[`fast`(默认)、`slow`]，`fast`对应原始的rectangle方式，`slow`对应polygon方式。感谢用户[buptlihang](https://github.com/buptlihang)提[pr](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/pull/2574)帮助解决该问题。\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.7 简单的对于精度要求不高的OCR任务，数据集需要准备多少张呢？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**：（1）训练数据的数量和需要解决问题的复杂度有关系。难度越大，精度要求越高，则数据集需求越大，而且一般情况实际中的训练数据越多效果越好。\n",
"\n",
"（2）对于精度要求不高的场景，检测任务和识别任务需要的数据量是不一样的。对于检测任务，500张图像可以保证基本的检测效果。对于识别任务，需要保证识别字典中每个字符出现在不同场景的行文本图像数目需要大于200张（举例，如果有字典中有5个字，每个字都需要出现在200张图片以上，那么最少要求的图像数量应该在200-1000张之间），这样可以保证基本的识别效果。\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.8 当训练数据量少时，如何获取更多的数据？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**：当训练数据量少时，可以尝试以下三种方式获取更多的数据：（1）人工采集更多的训练数据，最直接也是最有效的方式。（2）基于PIL和opencv基本图像处理或者变换。例如PIL中ImageFont, Image, ImageDraw三个模块将文字写到背景中，opencv的旋转仿射变换，高斯滤波等。（3）利用数据生成算法合成数据，例如pix2pix等算法。\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.9 如何更换文本检测/识别的backbone？**\n",
"\n",
"A：无论是文字检测，还是文字识别，骨干网络的选择是预测效果和预测效率的权衡。一般，选择更大规模的骨干网络，例如ResNet101_vd，则检测或识别更准确，但预测耗时相应也会增加。而选择更小规模的骨干网络，例如MobileNetV3_small_x0_35，则预测更快，但检测或识别的准确率会大打折扣。幸运的是不同骨干网络的检测或识别效果与在ImageNet数据集图像1000分类任务效果正相关。飞桨图像分类套件PaddleClas汇总了ResNet_vd、Res2Net、HRNet、MobileNetV3、GhostNet等23种系列的分类网络结构，在上述图像分类任务的top1识别准确率，GPU(V100和T4)和CPU(骁龙855)的预测耗时以及相应的117个预训练模型下载地址。\n",
"\n",
"（1）文字检测骨干网络的替换，主要是确定类似与ResNet的4个stages，以方便集成后续的类似FPN的检测头。此外，对于文字检测问题，使用ImageNet训练的分类预训练模型，可以加速收敛和效果提升。\n",
"\n",
"（2）文字识别的骨干网络的替换，需要注意网络宽高stride的下降位置。由于文本识别一般宽高比例很大，因此高度下降频率少一些，宽度下降频率多一些。可以参考[PaddleOCR中MobileNetV3骨干网络的改动](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/release%2F2.3/ppocr/modeling/backbones/rec_mobilenet_v3.py)。\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.10 如何对检测模型finetune，比如冻结前面的层或某些层使用小的学习率学习？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**：如果是冻结某些层，可以将变量的stop_gradient属性设置为True，这样计算这个变量之前的所有参数都不会更新了，参考：https://www.paddlepaddle.org.cn/documentation/docs/zh/develop/faq/train_cn.html#id4\n",
"\n",
"如果对某些层使用更小的学习率学习，静态图里还不是很方便，一个方法是在参数初始化的时候，给权重的属性设置固定的学习率，参考：https://www.paddlepaddle.org.cn/documentation/docs/zh/develop/api/paddle/fluid/param_attr/ParamAttr_cn.html#paramattr\n",
"\n",
"实际上我们实验发现，直接加载模型去fine-tune，不设置某些层不同学习率，效果也都不错。\n",
"\n",
"**1.11 DB的预处理部分，图片的长和宽为什么要处理成32的倍数？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**：和网络下采样的倍数（stride）有关。以检测中的resnet骨干网络为例，图像输入网络之后，需要经过5次2倍降采样，共32倍，因此建议输入的图像尺寸为32的倍数。\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.12 在PP-OCR系列的模型中，文本检测的骨干网络为什么没有使用SEBlock？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**：SE模块是MobileNetV3网络一个重要模块，目的是估计特征图每个特征通道重要性，给特征图每个特征分配权重，提高网络的表达能力。但是，对于文本检测，输入网络的分辨率比较大，一般是640\\*640，利用SE模块估计特征图每个特征通道重要性比较困难，网络提升能力有限，但是该模块又比较耗时，因此在PP-OCR系统中，文本检测的骨干网络没有使用SE模块。实验也表明，当去掉SE模块，超轻量模型大小可以减小40%，文本检测效果基本不受影响。详细可以参考PP-OCR技术文章，https://arxiv.org/abs/2009.09941.\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.13 PP-OCR检测效果不好，该如何优化？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**： 具体问题具体分析:\n",
"- 如果在你的场景上检测效果不可用，首选是在你的数据上做finetune训练；\n",
"- 如果图像过大，文字过于密集，建议不要过度压缩图像，可以尝试修改检测预处理的resize逻辑，防止图像被过度压缩；\n",
"- 检测框大小过于紧贴文字或检测框过大，可以调整db_unclip_ratio这个参数，加大参数可以扩大检测框，减小参数可以减小检测框大小；\n",
"- 检测框存在很多漏检问题，可以减小DB检测后处理的阈值参数det_db_box_thresh，防止一些检测框被过滤掉，也可以尝试设置det_db_score_mode为'slow';\n",
"- 其他方法可以选择use_dilation为True，对检测输出的feature map做膨胀处理，一般情况下，会有效果改善；\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"## 2. 文本检测预测相关FAQ\n",
"\n",
"**2.1 DB有些框太贴文本了反而去掉了一些文本的边角影响识别，这个问题有什么办法可以缓解吗？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**：可以把后处理的参数[unclip_ratio](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/d80afce9b51f09fd3d90e539c40eba8eb5e50dd6/tools/infer/utility.py?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container%2C%20div%5Bitemtype%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FSoftwareSourceCode%22%5D%20main%2C%20%5Bdata-pjax-container%5D#L52)适当调大一点，该参数越大文本框越大。\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**2.2 为什么PaddleOCR检测预测是只支持一张图片测试？即test_batch_size_per_card=1**\n",
"\n",
"**A**：预测的时候，对图像等比例缩放，最长边960，不同图像等比例缩放后长宽不一致，无法组成batch，所以设置为test_batch_size为1。\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**2.3 在CPU上加速PaddleOCR的文本检测模型预测？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**：x86 CPU可以使用mkldnn（OneDNN）进行加速；在支持mkldnn加速的CPU上开启[enable_mkldnn](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/tools/infer/utility.py#L105)参数。另外，配合增加CPU上预测使用的[线程数num_threads](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/tools/infer/utility.py#L106)，可以有效加快CPU上的预测速度。\n",
"\n",
"**2.4 在GPU上加速PaddleOCR的文本检测模型预测？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**：GPU加速预测推荐使用TensorRT。\n",
"- 1. 从[链接](https://paddleinference.paddlepaddle.org.cn/master/user_guides/download_lib.html)下载带TensorRT的Paddle安装包或者预测库。\n",
"- 2. 从Nvidia官网下载[TensorRT](https://developer.nvidia.com/tensorrt)，注意下载的TensorRT版本与paddle安装包中编译的TensorRT版本一致。\n",
"- 3. 设置环境变量`LD_LIBRARY_PATH`，指向TensorRT的lib文件夹\n",
"```\n",
"export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:<TensorRT-${version}/lib>\n",
"```\n",
"- 4. 开启PaddleOCR预测的[tensorrt选项](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/tools/infer/utility.py?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container%2C%20div%5Bitemtype%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FSoftwareSourceCode%22%5D%20main%2C%20%5Bdata-pjax-container%5D#L38)。\n",
"\n",
"**2.5 如何在移动端部署PaddleOCR模型？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: 飞桨Paddle有专门针对移动端部署的工具[PaddleLite](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Paddle-Lite)，并且PaddleOCR提供了DB+CRNN为demo的android arm部署代码，参考[链接](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/release%2F2.3/deploy/lite/readme.md)。\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**2.6 如何使用PaddleOCR多进程预测？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: 近期PaddleOCR新增了[多进程预测控制参数](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/tools/infer/utility.py?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container%2C%20div%5Bitemtype%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FSoftwareSourceCode%22%5D%20main%2C%20%5Bdata-pjax-container%5D#L111)，`use_mp`表示是否使用多进程，`total_process_num`表示在使用多进程时的进程数。具体使用方式请参考[文档](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/release%2F2.3/doc/doc_ch/inference.md#1-%E8%B6%85%E8%BD%BB%E9%87%8F%E4%B8%AD%E6%96%87ocr%E6%A8%A1%E5%9E%8B%E6%8E%A8%E7%90%86)。\n",
"\n",
"**2.7 预测时显存爆炸、内存泄漏问题？**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: 如果是训练模型的预测，由于模型太大或者输入图像太大导致显存不够用，可以参考代码在主函数运行前加上paddle.no_grad()，即可减小显存占用。如果是inference模型预测时显存占用过高，可以配置Config时，加入[config.enable_memory_optim()](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/tools/infer/utility.py?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container%2C%20div%5Bitemtype%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FSoftwareSourceCode%22%5D%20main%2C%20%5Bdata-pjax-container%5D#L267)用于减小内存占用。\n",
"\n",
"另外关于使用Paddle预测时出现内存泄漏的问题，建议安装paddle最新版本，内存泄漏已修复。"

"# 文本识别算法理论\n",
"\n",
"本章主要介绍文本识别算法的理论知识，包括背景介绍、算法分类和部分经典论文思路。\n",
"\n",
"通过本章的学习，你可以掌握：\n",
"\n",
"1. 文本识别的目标\n",
"\n",
"2. 文本识别算法的分类\n",
"\n",
"3. 各类算法的典型思想\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"## 1 背景介绍\n",
"\n",
"文本识别是OCR（Optical Character Recognition）的一个子任务，其任务为识别一个固定区域的文本内容。在OCR的两阶段方法里，它接在文本检测后面，将图像信息转换为文字信息。\n",
"\n",
"具体地，模型输入一张定位好的文本行，由模型预测出图片中的文字内容和置信度，可视化结果如下图所示：\n",

"\n",
"\n",
"文本识别的应用场景很多，有文档识别、路标识别、车牌识别、工业编号识别等等，根据实际场景可以把文本识别任务分为两个大类：**规则文本识别**和**不规则文本识别**。\n",
"\n",
"* 规则文本识别：主要指印刷字体、扫描文本等，认为文本大致处在水平线位置\n",
"\n",
"* 不规则文本识别： 往往出现在自然场景中，且由于文本曲率、方向、变形等方面差异巨大，文字往往不在水平位置，存在弯曲、遮挡、模糊等问题。\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"下图展示的是 IC15 和 IC13 的数据样式，它们分别代表了不规则文本和规则文本。可以看出不规则文本往往存在扭曲、模糊、字体差异大等问题，更贴近真实场景，也存在更大的挑战性。\n",
"\n",
"因此目前各大算法都试图在不规则数据集上获得更高的指标。\n",
"\n",
"<center><img src=https://ai-studio-static-online.cdn.bcebos.com/bae4fce1370b4751a3779542323d0765a02a44eace7b44d2a87a241c13c6f8cf width=\"400\">\n",

"## 2 文本识别算法分类\n",
"\n",
"在传统的文本识别方法中，任务分为3个步骤，即图像预处理、字符分割和字符识别。需要对特定场景进行建模，一旦场景变化就会失效。面对复杂的文字背景和场景变动，基于深度学习的方法具有更优的表现。\n",

"### 2.1 规则文本识别\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"文本识别的主流算法有两种，分别是基于 CTC (Conectionist Temporal Classification) 的算法和 Sequence2Sequence 算法，区别主要在解码阶段。\n",
"\n",
"基于 CTC 的算法是将编码产生的序列接入 CTC 进行解码；基于 Sequence2Sequence 的方法则是把序列接入循环神经网络(Recurrent Neural Network, RNN)模块进行循环解码，两种方式都验证有效也是主流的两大做法。\n",
"\n",
"<center><img src=https://ai-studio-static-online.cdn.bcebos.com/f64eee66e4a6426f934c1befc3b138629324cf7360c74f72bd6cf3c0de9d49bd width=\"600\"></center>\n",
"<br><center>左：基于CTC的方法，右：基于Sequece2Sequence的方法 </center>\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"#### 2.1.1 基于CTC的算法\n",
"\n",
"基于 CTC 最典型的算法是CRNN (Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network)[1]，它的特征提取部分使用主流的卷积结构，常用的有ResNet、MobileNet、VGG等。由于文本识别任务的特殊性，输入数据中存在大量的上下文信息，卷积神经网络的卷积核特性使其更关注于局部信息，缺乏长依赖的建模能力，因此仅使用卷积网络很难挖掘到文本之间的上下文联系。为了解决这一问题，CRNN文本识别算法引入了双向 LSTM(Long Short-Term Memory) 用来增强上下文建模，通过实验证明双向LSTM模块可以有效的提取出图片中的上下文信息。最终将输出的特征序列输入到CTC模块，直接解码序列结果。该结构被验证有效，并广泛应用在文本识别任务中。Rosetta[2]是FaceBook提出的识别网络，由全卷积模型和CTC组成。Gao Y[3]等人使用CNN卷积替代LSTM，参数更少，性能提升精度持平。\n",
"\n",
"<center><img src=https://ai-studio-static-online.cdn.bcebos.com/d3c96dd9e9794fddb12fa16f926abdd3485194f0a2b749e792e436037490899b width=\"600\"></center>\n",
"<center> CRNN 结构图 </center>\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"#### 2.1.2 Sequence2Sequence 算法\n",
"\n",
"Sequence2Sequence 算法是由编码器 Encoder 把所有的输入序列都编码成一个统一的语义向量，然后再由解码器Decoder解码。在解码器Decoder解码的过程中，不断地将前一个时刻的输出作为后一个时刻的输入，循环解码，直到输出停止符为止。一般编码器是一个RNN，对于每个输入的词，编码器输出向量和隐藏状态，并将隐藏状态用于下一个输入的单词，循环得到语义向量；解码器是另一个RNN，它接收编码器输出向量并输出一系列字以创建转换。受到 Sequence2Sequence 在翻译领域的启发， Shi[4]提出了一种基于注意的编解码框架来识别文本,通过这种方式，rnn能够从训练数据中学习隐藏在字符串中的字符级语言模型。\n",
"\n",
"<center><img src=https://ai-studio-static-online.cdn.bcebos.com/f575333696b7438d919975dc218e61ccda1305b638c5497f92b46a7ec3b85243 width=\"400\" hight=\"500\"></center>\n",
"<center> Sequence2Sequence 结构图 </center>\n",
"\n",
"以上两个算法在规则文本上都有很不错的效果，但由于网络设计的局限性，这类方法很难解决弯曲和旋转的不规则文本识别任务。为了解决这类问题，部分算法研究人员在以上两类算法的基础上提出了一系列改进算法。\n",

"* 不规则文本识别算法可以被分为4大类：基于校正的方法；基于 Attention 的方法；基于分割的方法；基于 Transformer 的方法。\n",
"\n",
"#### 2.2.1 基于校正的方法\n",
"\n",
"基于校正的方法利用一些视觉变换模块，将非规则的文本尽量转换为规则文本，然后使用常规方法进行识别。\n",
"\n",
"RARE[4]模型首先提出了对不规则文本的校正方案，整个网络分为两个主要部分：一个空间变换网络STN(Spatial Transformer Network) 和一个基于Sequence2Squence的识别网络。其中STN就是校正模块，不规则文本图像进入STN，通过TPS(Thin-Plate-Spline)变换成一个水平方向的图像，该变换可以一定程度上校正弯曲、透射变换的文本，校正后送入序列识别网络进行解码。\n",
"\n",
"<center><img src=https://ai-studio-static-online.cdn.bcebos.com/66406f89507245e8a57969b9bed26bfe0227a8cf17a84873902dd4a464b97bb5 width=\"600\"></center>\n",
"<center> RARE 结构图 </center>\n",
"\n",
"RARE论文指出，该方法在不规则文本数据集上有较大的优势，特别比较了CUTE80和SVTP这两个数据集，相较CRNN高出5个百分点以上，证明了校正模块的有效性。基于此[6]同样结合了空间变换网络(STN)和基于注意的序列识别网络的文本识别系统。\n",
"\n",
"基于校正的方法有较好的迁移性，除了RARE这类基于Attention的方法外，STAR-Net[5]将校正模块应用到基于CTC的算法上，相比传统CRNN也有很好的提升。\n",
"\n",
"#### 2.2.2 基于Attention的方法\n",
"\n",
"基于 Attention 的方法主要关注的是序列之间各部分的相关性，该方法最早在机器翻译领域提出，认为在文本翻译的过程中当前词的结果主要由某几个单词影响的，因此需要给有决定性的单词更大的权重。在文本识别领域也是如此，将编码后的序列解码时，每一步都选择恰当的context来生成下一个状态，这样有利于得到更准确的结果。\n",
"\n",
"R^2AM [7] 首次将 Attention 引入文本识别领域，该模型首先将输入图像通过递归卷积层提取编码后的图像特征，然后利用隐式学习到的字符级语言统计信息通过递归神经网络解码输出字符。在解码过程中引入了Attention 机制实现了软特征选择，以更好地利用图像特征，这一有选择性的处理方式更符合人类的直觉。\n",
"\n",
"<center><img src=https://ai-studio-static-online.cdn.bcebos.com/a64ef10d4082422c8ac81dcda4ab75bf1db285d6b5fd462a8f309240445654d5 width=\"600\"></center>\n",
"<center> R^2AM 结构图 </center>\n",
"\n",
"后续有大量算法在Attention领域进行探索和更新，例如SAR[8]将1D attention拓展到2D attention上，校正模块提到的RARE也是基于Attention的方法。实验证明基于Attention的方法相比CTC的方法有很好的精度提升。\n",
"\n",
"<center><img src=https://ai-studio-static-online.cdn.bcebos.com/4e2507fb58d94ec7a9b4d17151a986c84c5053114e05440cb1e7df423d32cb02 width=\"600\"></center>\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"#### 2.2.3 基于分割的方法\n",
"\n",
"基于分割的方法是将文本行的各字符作为独立个体，相比与对整个文本行做矫正后识别，识别分割出的单个字符更加容易。它试图从输入的文本图像中定位每个字符的位置，并应用字符分类器来获得这些识别结果，将复杂的全局问题简化成了局部问题解决，在不规则文本场景下有比较不错的效果。然而这种方法需要字符级别的标注，数据获取上存在一定的难度。Lyu[9]等人提出了一种用于单词识别的实例分词模型，该模型在其识别部分使用了基于 FCN(Fully Convolutional Network) 的方法。[10]从二维角度考虑文本识别问题，设计了一个字符注意FCN来解决文本识别问题，当文本弯曲或严重扭曲时，该方法对规则文本和非规则文本都具有较优的定位结果。\n",
"\n",
"<center><img src=https://ai-studio-static-online.cdn.bcebos.com/fd3e8ef0d6ce4249b01c072de31297ca5d02fc84649846388f890163b624ff10 width=\"800\"></center>\n",
"<center> Mask TextSpotter 结构图 </center>\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"#### 2.2.4 基于Transformer的方法\n",
"\n",
"随着 Transformer 的快速发展，分类和检测领域都验证了 Transformer 在视觉任务中的有效性。如规则文本识别部分所说，CNN在长依赖建模上存在局限性，Transformer 结构恰好解决了这一问题，它可以在特征提取器中关注全局信息，并且可以替换额外的上下文建模模块（LSTM）。\n",
"\n",
"一部分文本识别算法使用 Transformer 的 Encoder 结构和卷积共同提取序列特征，Encoder 由多个 MultiHeadAttentionLayer 和 Positionwise Feedforward Layer 堆叠而成的block组成。MulitHeadAttention 中的 self-attention 利用矩阵乘法模拟了RNN的时序计算，打破了RNN中时序长时依赖的障碍。也有一部分算法使用 Transformer 的 Decoder 模块解码，相比传统RNN可获得更强的语义信息，同时并行计算具有更高的效率。\n",
"\n",
"SRN[11] 算法将Transformer的Encoder模块接在ResNet50后，增强了2D视觉特征。并提出了一个并行注意力模块，将读取顺序用作查询，使得计算与时间无关，最终并行输出所有时间步长的对齐视觉特征。此外SRN还利用Transformer的Eecoder作为语义模块，将图片的视觉信息和语义信息做融合，在遮挡、模糊等不规则文本上有较大的收益。\n",
"\n",
"NRTR[12] 使用了完整的Transformer结构对输入图片进行编码和解码，只使用了简单的几个卷积层做高层特征提取，在文本识别上验证了Transformer结构的有效性。\n",
"\n",
"<center><img src=https://ai-studio-static-online.cdn.bcebos.com/e7859f4469a842f0bd450e7e793a679d6e828007544241d09785c9b4ea2424a2 width=\"800\"></center>\n",
"<center> NRTR 结构图 </center>\n",
"\n",
"SRACN[13]使用Transformer的解码器替换LSTM，再一次验证了并行训练的高效性和精度优势。\n",
"\n",
"## 3 总结\n",
"\n",
"本节主要介绍了文本识别相关的理论知识和主流算法，包括基于CTC的方法、基于Sequence2Sequence的方法以及基于分割的方法，并分别列举了经典论文的思路和贡献。下一节将基于CRNN算法进行实践课程讲解，从组网到优化完成整个训练过程，\n",

"# Text detection FAQ\n",
"\n",
"This section lists some of the problems that developers often encounter when using PaddleOCR's text detection model, and gives corresponding solutions or suggestions.\n",
"\n",
"The FAQ is introduced in two parts, namely:\n",
" -Text detection training related\n",
" -Text detection and prediction related"
]
},
{
"cell_type": "markdown",
"metadata": {},
"source": [
"## 1. FAQ about Text Detection Training\n",
"\n",
"**1.1 What are the text detection algorithms provided by PaddleOCR?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: PaddleOCR contains a variety of text detection models, including regression-based text detection methods EAST and SAST, and segmentation-based text detection methods DB, PSENet.\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.2: What data sets are used in the Chinese ultra-lightweight and general models in the PaddleOCR project? How many samples were trained, what configuration of GPUs, how many epochs were run, and how long did they run?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: For the ultra-lightweight DB detection model, the training data includes open source data sets lsvt, rctw, CASIA, CCPD, MSRA, MLT, BornDigit, iflytek, SROIE and synthetic data sets, etc. The total data volume is 10W, The data set is divided into 5 parts. A random sampling strategy is used during training. The training takes about 500 epochs on a 4-card V100GPU, which takes 3 days.\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.3 Does the text detection training label require specific text labeling? What does the \"###\" in the label mean?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: Text detection training only needs the coordinates of the text area. The label can be four or fourteen points, arranged in the order of upper left, upper right, lower right, and lower left. The label file provided by PaddleOCR contains text fields. For unclear text in the text area, ### will be used instead. When training the detection model, the text field in the label will not be used.\n",
" \n",
"**1.4 Is the effect of the text detection model trained when the text lines are tight?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: When using segmentation-based methods, such as DB, to detect dense text lines, it is best to collect a batch of data for training, and during training, a binary image will be generated [shrink_ratio](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/ppocr/data/imaug/make_shrink_map.py?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container%2C%20div%5Bitemtype%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FSoftwareSourceCode%22%5D%20main%2C%20%5Bdata-pjax-container%5D#L37)Turn down the parameter. In addition, when forecasting, you can appropriately reduce [unclip_ratio](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/configs/det/ch_ppocr_v2.0/ch_det_mv3_db_v2.0.yml?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container%2C%20div%5Bitemtype%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FSoftwareSourceCode%22%5D%20main%2C%20%5Bdata-pjax-container%5D#L59) parameter, the larger the unclip_ratio parameter value, the larger the detection frame.\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.5 For some large-sized document images, DB will have more missed inspections during inspection. How to avoid this kind of missed inspections?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: First of all, you need to determine whether the model is not well-trained or is the problem handled during prediction. If the model is not well trained, it is recommended to add more data for training, or add more data to enhance it during training.\n",
"If the problem is that the predicted image is too large, you can increase the longest side setting parameter [det_limit_side_len] entered during prediction [det_limit_side_len](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/tools/infer/utility.py?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container%2C%20div%5Bitemtype%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FSoftwareSourceCode%22%5D%20main%2C%20%5Bdata-pjax-container%5D#L47), which is 960 by default.\n",
"Secondly, you can observe whether the missed text has segmentation results by visualizing the post-processed segmentation map. If there is no segmentation result, the model is not well trained. If there is a complete segmentation area, it means that it is a problem of post-prediction processing. In this case, it is recommended to adjust [DB post-processing parameters](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/tools/infer/utility.py?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container%2C%20div%5Bitemtype%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FSoftwareSourceCode%22%5D%20main%2C%20%5Bdata-pjax-container%5D#L51-L53)。\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.6 The problem of missed detection of DB model bending text (such as a slightly deformed document image)?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: When calculating the average score of the text box in the DB post-processing, it is the average score of the rectangle area, which is easy to cause the missed detection of the curved text. The average score of the polygon area has been added, which will be more accurate, but the speed is somewhat different. Decrease, can be selected as needed, and you can view the [Visual Contrast Effect] (https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/pull/2604) in the relevant pr. This function is selected by the parameter [det_db_score_mode](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/release/2.1/tools/infer/utility.py#L51), the parameter value is optional [`fast` (default) , `slow`], `fast` corresponds to the original rectangle mode, and `slow` corresponds to the polygon mode. Thanks to the user [buptlihang](https://github.com/buptlihang) for mentioning [pr](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/pull/2574) to help solve this problem.\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.7 For simple OCR tasks with low accuracy requirements, how many data sets do I need to prepare?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: (1) The amount of training data is related to the complexity of the problem to be solved. The greater the difficulty and the higher the accuracy requirements, the greater the data set requirements, and in general, the more training data in practice, the better the effect.\n",
"\n",
"(2) For scenes with low accuracy requirements, the amount of data required for detection tasks and recognition tasks is different. For inspection tasks, 500 images can guarantee the basic inspection results. For recognition tasks, it is necessary to ensure that the number of line text images in which each character in the recognition dictionary appears in different scenes needs to be greater than 200 (for example, if there are 5 words in the dictionary, each word needs to appear in more than 200 pictures, then The minimum required number of images should be between 200-1000), so that the basic recognition effect can be guaranteed.\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.8 How to get more data when the amount of training data is small?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: When the amount of training data is small, you can try the following three ways to get more data: (1) Collect more training data manually, the most direct and effective way. (2) Basic image processing or transformation based on PIL and opencv. For example, the three modules of ImageFont, Image, ImageDraw in PIL write text into the background, opencv's rotating affine transformation, Gaussian filtering and so on. (3) Synthesize data using data generation algorithms, such as algorithms such as pix2pix.\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.9 How to replace the backbone of text detection/recognition?**\n",
"\n",
"A: Whether it is text detection or text recognition, the choice of backbone network is a trade-off between prediction effect and prediction efficiency. Generally, if you choose a larger-scale backbone network, such as ResNet101_vd, the detection or recognition will be more accurate, but the prediction time will increase accordingly. However, choosing a smaller-scale backbone network, such as MobileNetV3_small_x0_35, will predict faster, but the accuracy of detection or recognition will be greatly reduced. Fortunately, the detection or recognition effects of different backbone networks are positively correlated with the image 1000 classification task in the ImageNet dataset. PaddleClas, a flying paddle image classification suite, summarizes 23 series of classification network structures such as ResNet_vd, Res2Net, HRNet, MobileNetV3, GhostNet, etc. The top1 recognition accuracy rate of the above image classification task, GPU (V100 and T4) and CPU (Snapdragon 855) The prediction time-consuming and the corresponding 117 pre-training model download addresses.\n",
"\n",
"(1) The replacement of the text detection backbone network is mainly to determine 4 stages similar to ResNet to facilitate the integration of subsequent detection heads similar to FPN. In addition, for the text detection problem, the classification pre-training model trained by ImageNet can accelerate the convergence and improve the effect.\n",
"\n",
"(2) The replacement of the backbone network for text recognition requires attention to the drop position of the network width and height stride. Since text recognition generally has a large ratio of width to height, the frequency of height reduction is less, and the frequency of width reduction is more. You can refer to [Changes to the MobileNetV3 backbone network in PaddleOCR](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/release%2F2.3/ppocr/modeling/backbones/rec_mobilenet_v3.py)。\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.10 How to finetune the detection model, such as freezing the previous layer or learning with a small learning rate for some layers?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: If you freeze certain layers, you can set the stop_gradient property of the variable to True, so that all the parameters before calculating this variable will not be updated, refer to: https://www.paddlepaddle.org.cn/documentation/docs/zh/develop/faq/train_cn.html#id4\n",
"\n",
"If learning with a smaller learning rate for some layers is not very convenient in the static graph, one method is to set a fixed learning rate for the weight attribute when the parameters are initialized, refer to: https://www.paddlepaddle.org.cn/documentation/docs/en/develop/api/paddle/fluid/param_attr/ParamAttr_cn.html#paramattr\n",
"\n",
"In fact, our experiment found that directly loading the model to fine-tune without setting different learning rates of certain layers, the effect is also good.\n",
"\n",
"**1.11 In the preprocessing part of DB, why should the length and width of the picture be processed into multiples of 32?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: It is related to the stride of the network downsampling. Take the resnet backbone network under inspection as an example. After the image is input to the network, it needs to be downsampled by 2 times for 5 times, a total of 32 times. Therefore, it is recommended that the input image size be a multiple of 32.\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.12 In the PP-OCR series models, why does the backbone network for text detection not use SEBlock?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: The SE module is an important module of the MobileNetV3 network. Its purpose is to estimate the importance of each feature channel of the feature map, assign weights to each feature of the feature map, and improve the expressive ability of the network. However, for text detection, the resolution of the input network is relatively large, generally 640\\*640. It is difficult to use the SE module to estimate the importance of each feature channel of the feature map. The network improvement ability is limited, but the module is relatively time-consuming. In the PP-OCR system, the backbone network for text detection does not use the SE module. Experiments also show that when the SE module is removed, the size of the ultra-lightweight model can be reduced by 40%, and the text detection effect is basically not affected. For details, please refer to the PP-OCR technical article, https://arxiv.org/abs/2009.09941.\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**1.13 The PP-OCR detection effect is not good, how to optimize it?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: Specific analysis of specific issues:\n",
"- If the detection effect is not available on your scene, the first choice is to do finetune training on your data;\n",
"- If the image is too large and the text is too dense, it is recommended not to over-compress the image. You can try to modify the resize logic of the detection preprocessing to prevent the image from being over-compressed;\n",
"- The size of the detection frame is too close to the text or the detection frame is too large, you can adjust the db_unclip_ratio parameter, increasing the parameter can enlarge the detection frame, and reducing the parameter can reduce the size of the detection frame;\n",
"- There are many missed detection problems in the detection frame, which can reduce the threshold parameter det_db_box_thresh for DB detection to prevent some detection frames from being filtered out. You can also try to set det_db_score_mode to'slow';\n",
"- Other methods can choose use_dilation as True to expand the feature map of the detection output. In general, the effect will be improved.\n",

"## 2. FAQ about Text Detection and Prediction\n",
"\n",
"**2.1 In DB, some boxes are too pasted with text, but some corners of the text are removed to affect the recognition. Is there any way to alleviate this problem?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: The post-processing parameter [unclip_ratio](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/d80afce9b51f09fd3d90e539c40eba8eb5e50dd6/tools/infer/utility.py?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container%2C%20div%5Bitemtype%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FSoftwareSourceCode%22%5D%20main%2C%20%5Bdata-pjax-container%5D#L52) can be appropriately increased. the larger the parameter, the larger the text box.\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**2.2 Why does the PaddleOCR detection prediction only support one image test? That is, test_batch_size_per_card=1**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: When predicting, the image is scaled in equal proportions, the longest side is 960, and the length and width of different images after scaling in equal proportions are inconsistent, and they cannot form a batch, so set test_batch_size to 1.\n",
"\n",
"\n",
"**2.3 Accelerate PaddleOCR's text detection model prediction on the CPU?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: x86 CPU can use mkldnn (OneDNN) for acceleration; enable [enable_mkldnn](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/tools/infer/utility.py#L105) Parameters. In addition, in conjunction with increasing the number of threads used for prediction on the CPU, [num_threads](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/tools/infer/utility.py#L106) can effectively speed up the prediction speed on the CPU.\n",
"\n",
"**2.4 Accelerate PaddleOCR's text detection model prediction on GPU?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: TensorRT is recommended for GPU accelerated prediction.\n",
"- 1. Download the Paddle installation package or prediction library with TensorRT from [link](https://paddleinference.paddlepaddle.org.cn/master/user_guides/download_lib.html).\n",
"- 2. Download the [TensorRT](https://developer.nvidia.com/tensorrt) from the Nvidia official website. Note that the downloaded TensorRT version is consistent with the TensorRT version compiled in the paddle installation package.\n",
"- 3. Set the environment variable `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` to point to the lib folder of TensorRT\n",
"```\n",
"export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:<TensorRT-${version}/lib>\n",
"```\n",
"- 4. Enable [tensorrt option](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/tools/infer/utility.py?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container%2%5Bitemtype%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FSoftwareSourceCode%22%5D%20main%2C%20%5Bdata-pjax-container%5D#L38).\n",
"\n",
"**2.5 How to deploy PaddleOCR model on the mobile terminal?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: Flying Oar Paddle has a special tool for mobile deployment [PaddleLite](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Paddle-Lite), and PaddleOCR provides DB+CRNN as the demo android arm deployment code , Refer to [link](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/release%2F2.3/deploy/lite/readme.md).\n",
"\n",

"\n",
"**2.7 Video memory explosion and memory leak during prediction?**\n",
"\n",
"**A**: If it is the prediction of the training model, the video memory is not enough because the model is too large or the input image is too large, you can refer to the code and add paddle.no_grad() before the main function runs to reduce the video memory usage. If the memory usage of the inference model is too high, you can add [config.enable_memory_optim()](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/blob/8b656a3e13631dfb1ac21d2095d4d4a4993ef710/tools/infer/utility.py?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container%2C%20div%5Bitemtype%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FSoftwareSourceCode%22%5D%20main%2C%20%5Bdata-pjax-container%5D#L267) to reduce the memory usage when configuring Config.\n",
