## 简介
PaddleOCR旨在打造一套丰富、领先、且实用的OCR工具库，助力使用者训练出更好的模型，并应用落地。
## 特性
- 超轻量级中文OCR，总模型仅8.6M
- 单模型支持中英文数字组合识别、竖排文本识别、长文本识别
- 检测模型DB（4.1M）+识别模型CRNN（4.5M）
- 多种文本检测训练算法，EAST、DB
- 多种文本识别训练算法，Rosetta、CRNN、STAR-Net、RARE
## **超轻量级中文OCR体验**
上图是超轻量级中文OCR模型效果展示，更多效果图请见文末[效果展示](#效果展示)。
#### 1.环境配置
请先参考[快速安装](./doc/installation.md)配置PaddleOCR运行环境。
#### 2.模型下载
```
# 创建模型保存目录
mkdir inference && cd inference && mkdir det && mkdir rec
# 下载inference模型文件包
wget -P ./inference https://paddleocr.bj.bcebos.com/inference.tar
# inference模型文件包解压
tar -xf ./inference/inference.tar
```
#### 3.单张图像或者图像集合预测
以下代码实现了文本检测、识别串联推理，在执行预测时，需要通过参数image_dir指定单张图像或者图像集合的路径、参数det_model_dir指定检测inference模型的路径和参数rec_model_dir指定识别inference模型的路径。
```
# 设置PYTHONPATH环境变量
export PYTHONPATH=.
# 预测image_dir指定的单张图像
python tools/infer/predict_system.py --image_dir="/Demo.jpg" --det_model_dir="./inference/det/" --rec_model_dir="./inference/rec/"
# 预测image_dir指定的图像集合
python tools/infer/predict_system.py --image_dir="/test_imgs/" --det_model_dir="./inference/det/" --rec_model_dir="./inference/rec/"
```
更多的文本检测、识别串联推理使用方式请参考文档教程中[基于推理引擎预测](./doc/inference.md)。
