Tool which allow you to detect and translate text.

Last update: Nov 28, 2022

Overview

Text detection and recognition

This repository contains tool which allow to detect region with text and translate it one by one.

Description

Two pretrained neural networks are used. One of them is responsible for detecting places in which text appear and return its coordinates. Structure use for this operation is based on CRAFT architecture.

Craft Paper

Second network take detected words and recognize words included inside it. Convolutional Recurrential neural networks (CRNN) are used for this operation.

CRNN Paper

Example

Under construction

Deployment

I decided to deploy it on heroku (temporarily solution), but the amount of memory available on this platform is not enough. You can check it on heroku app. I decided to add bootstrap template because whole solution become more intuitive.

Windows Installation

To install it locally, you can run from your virtual env

python -m pip install requirements.txt

Linux installation

to install it properly on Linux OS you have to install additionaly


apt-get update
apt-get install -y libsm6 libxext6 libxrender-dev
pip install opencv-python

If problems with cv2 imports are still appearing then you should install

pip install opencv-contrib-python

Then you can run

```python
python -m pip install requirements.txt

Run

To run it locally, please activate your environment

> win
venv\Scripts\activate.bat

>linux
source venv\Scripts\activate

and run straight from project origin

python  app.py

If everything goes properly, you'll see on localhost:8000, screen just like one below.

Updates

I decided to remove argparse, because as I mention earlier, it was less intuitive. Solution is not fast, is more like an toy example which shows how to use Pytorch model on deployment environment.

Version which I use here contain torch-cpu which make preprocessing and detecting slightly slower. I test it on cuda and it was much faster.

If you have more information, drop me a line If you like it, give a star

Draft: Show how does it work on complex .tif example document.

@s3nh clovaai just released the LinkRefiner code clovaai/CRAFT-pytorch@3cd65f5 better you implement it, along with option to train . So that we can detect text-lines

Training on custom data??

Hi, I'd like to know if this repo can be used to train CRAFT on custom data using weakly supervised learning ? I have images with a lot of text on them. All of the text has been tagged but at a sentence level, i.e., I have the bounding box information and ground truth label information but at a sentence level. Can weakly supervised learning be used in this case ?

CRAFT Model memory usage

Seems your code mostly inspired from: https://github.com/clovaai/CRAFT-pytorch

I was using the same repo for text detection model and saw cpu memory usage of CRAFT model. It increases after each image. Were you able to detect the same problem.

ValueError: tile cannot extend outside image

Hi, Thanks for this amazing work. I was using this repo for recognition task but when i run the app.py ,upload the image and click on get your results it gives ValueError: tile cannot extend outside image.

Deskew is a command line tool for deskewing scanned text documents. It uses Hough transform to detect "text lines" in the image. As an output, you get an image rotated so that the lines are horizontal.

This is a c++ project deploying a deep scene text reading pipeline with tensorflow. It reads text from natural scene images. It uses frozen tensorflow graphs. The detector detect scene text locations. The recognizer reads word from each detected bounding box.
