 ## 2. Optimization for Text Detection Model
 
-The PP-OCRv3 detection model is an upgrade of the [CML](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2109.03144.pdf) (Collaborative Mutual Learning) text detection distillation strategy in PP-OCRv2. As shown in the figure below, the core idea of CML combines ① the distillation of the traditional Teacher to guide Students and ② the DML mutual learning between the Students network, which allows the Students network to learn from each other. PP-OCRv3 further optimizes the effect of teacher model and student model respectively. For the Teacher model, 
-we propose a PAN structure LKPAN with a larger receptive field and use the DML  (Deep Mutual Learning) distillation strategy to optimizing the Teacher model. For the student model, 
-we propose a lightweight FPN structure RSEFPN to improve the accuracy of the student model.

 ## 3. Optimization for Text Recognition Model
 
-The recognition module of PP-OCRv3 is optimized based on the text recognition algorithm [SVTR] (https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.00159). RNN is abandoned in SVTR, and the context information of the text line image is more effectively mined by introducing the Transformers structure, thereby improving the text recognition ability. The recognition model of PP-OCRv2 was directly replaced with SVTR_Tiny, and the recognition accuracy increased from 74.8% to 80.1% (+5.3%), but the prediction speed was nearly 11 times slower, and it took nearly 100ms to predict a text line on the CPU. Therefore, as shown in the figure below, PP-OCRv3 adopts the following six optimization strategies to accelerate the recognition model.
